OTD! Can’t help but feel worried!
Hi everyone, so today is OTD and although my tests are still positive I don’t feel the lines have got any darker. I’ve been using the wondfo strips which have good reviews and seem to work well for others with a good line progression. I have also tested with clear blue digital and it is still saying

GCA now TIA, irregular heartbeat
Early August I was diagnosed with a ‘left front ischaemic stroke secondary to new atrial fibrillation…heartbeat irregularly irregular’. It was quite scary as I lost language and ability to order numbers for a short time. Hot foot to A & E, cue ECG, bloods, MRI. Cholesterol 8.0. Prescribed Edoxaban,

Potential AF? Bisoprolol for management?
Hi everyone, I’m mainly looking for advice, tips, anyone who has experienced something similar and how they now go about managing it. I started having episodes of heart palpitations at the back end of 2020, where my heart rate would randomly spike to over 150bpm when resting, as it only happened a

Post Op Clinic today
I just wanted to update folks on my progress. I've been to Papworth this afternoon for clinic, my surgery was 9 1/2 weeks ago. Whilst it was a bit of a production line process they did an ECG, Chest X-Ray and checked my Stats. Since I've been home , about 2 hours after leaving clinic, I've been asked

Breathlessness when walking up slight gradients/stairs
Further to my previous post about breathlessness, I finally had an audience with the Pope, masquerading as my GP (my he's aged a lot since the last time I saw him - mind you, haven't we all. My goal was to get a Acth test arranged, as I'm convinced my problem is adrenal related and I'm concerned about

2 week Holter moniter
does anyone know how a two-week ECG monitor is different to a 24 hour monitor - in terms of the different wearable device? I have previously had a 24-hour ECG, but I have just seen someone during my echocardiogram and they mentioned that a two week monitor is a different device.

ECG interpretation
Hi all, I recently bought the Getwellue ECG 24h device and I'm starting to use it. How would you interpret the circled area of the ecg picture which I recorded during sleep? Is it just an isolated faster heart rhythm and then going back to 50 beats/min, which is my resting rate? The device software is

bleeding :-( freaking out
I recently had a BFP with strong hcg numbers. I am 5+3 today and felt a funny feeling, like a bit of stomach ache but as if I’ve eaten something funny, not pain as such. I went to the toilet to find red blood 😞 Sorry for TMI but it was a quite a bit when I wiped and now a few drops on my pad. I have

Wierd ekg at first 5 seconds
Apologize if this is an un educated question. But the first 5 Or 6 seconds The EKG looks like It's very irregular or salt tooth looking. But then when my pulse Kicks in, it goes normal. Does anyone else get this?

Is it safe to have another Covid vaccination?
A month after having my 4th Covid vaccination & a flu jab in September ‘22 I was diagnosed with PMR - coincidence probably? Anyway, I’ve received my invite for a 5th Covid jab ‘as my immune system is compromised’. As this would be my first vaccination since being diagnosed I would be interested to

CT Scan Results
Hello again. Just had my CT scan results back and amazingly it says I do not have angina! The results show no coronary plaque identified, but minor aortic valve calcification noted. It also noted my lungs appear fine, but they do note slightly patulous oesophagus - what does this mean? So this is

How to cope when appointments are so delayed.
I have SLE and am under cardiology for investigation due to tachycardia. My Rheumatologists think it may be PoTS. The cardiologists have done loads of tests but are yet to give a diagnosis. Unfortunately the cardiology waiting lists are huge (took 50 weeks on the urgent lists to even be seen after
