Minoca heart attack
Hi there, I am new to this world but would be grateful for some insight to help my mum. A week ago mum was admitted to hospital for what they are saying is Minoca. ECG and troponin levels showed this, and subsequent angiogram 4 days later showed no obstructions etc. Dr cardiologist discharged mum saying

a story about NHS blindness to T3
this story is almost incredible but sadly believable. I’ve been dividing my afternoon T3 into two doses and got confused. I ended up taking an extra 5mcg by mistake. My heart rate shot up, I panicked and went to A&E in case it got worse. They were brilliant. Blood test, ECG, cup of tea.

Apple Watch
Curious to hear from anyone using an Apple Watch ECG app to monitor afib. On mine I can get a reading saying afib and then immediately measure again and get sinus. I recently started taking Dofetilide, so maybe the medication is helping to resolve afib episodes. Any thoughts on how accurate Apple Watch

AV Node Ablation and Pacemaker
Hi lovely people, I promised I’d get back to you after seeing a cardiologist/electrophysiologist privately. As you might guess from the title, this is what he believes will solve my problem. I will still be in persistent Afib, but won’t feel it. In the meantime he has doubled my digoxin dose and I will

Ways to Monitor Heart Rate During Night
I posted a question here earlier in the year as am trying to find the reasons why I awake after about 5 hours sleep every morning feeling unwell. I have had some blood tests etc since but have not really made any progress with this particular problem. I do know that I have some kind of problem with

6 weeks 6 days scan - sac but no yolk or fetal pole
I know this is bad news. I have a intact sac measuring 16.9mm (6 weeks), but no yolk or fetal pole. I feel nauseous from the HCG from the sac. I have to repeat the scan in 1 week to confirm the pregnancy isn't viable. I know this is bad news, but I can't give up hope until I have to. Hoping for a

Beta Hell
Hoping someone can give me some hope. I experienced a small bleed at 16dp5dt therefore went in for my first beta at 17dp5dt. (My clinic didn't offer betas originally). At 17dpt my HCG level was 8159. At 19dpt my HCG was 12,176 and at 21dpt my HCG was17,131 (today). My clinic are concerned as my HCG is

Help to interpret ECG
I felt my heart behaving strangely and took an ECG on my Apple watch. The trace was unlike any I have seen before. After 10 mins I was back to normal and got a normal sinus ECG. Can anyone interpret the ECG for me and say what was going on? many thanks, Paul.

Here we go
Horrendous bad night caused by firstly being given fusimide at 10pm, from that moment I was going to the loo every 20 mins up until 6 am this morning. But to do this I had to walk to the toilet, about 25 feet, with mega chest pain and I mean mega and breathing difficulties and the only way I could do

NM Rubidium 82 Test
Hello everyone just an update well I had a a NM Rubidium 82 scan on the 21st July 2023. I received the results. No blockage in my arteries, however, it did show that at rest my EF was 14%at stress level 20%. I am not sure if this is at a dangerous level as in 2019 I had a EF reading of 30% to 35%.

What AF looks like on an ECG
For those told they have AF and trying to make sense of an ECG, I thought that I'd post a copy of my ECG. I have permanent AF but thankfully without symptoms so it has no effect on my life other than having to take 1.25mg of Bisoprolol and 60 mg Edoxaban every day. This is what my ECG always looks

12dp6dt and BFN, is this over?
I'm 12dp6dt today. I had almost no symptoms up to this morning when I woke up to cramps like my usual periods. The blood on the pad/bowl looks like the kind of bleeding I get on Day 1 of period. Took a home pregnancy test and there wasn't even a faint line. From your experience, does this sound like

Cardioversion Prep
I’m having my first cardioversion in 6 days time and they told me to shave my chest. They did say that they would do it if I can’t but they made such a hash of shaving tiny bits for the ECG that I’d rather do it myself. What they didn’t say though was how much or where to shave. Do I need to shave

AF and statins
Hello.I’d appreciate some advice. Four years ago I had atrial flutter. I had cardioversion and was put on blood thinners and BP meds. In the last few months it has returned as PAF. My ECG watch goes red every other day for hours or days. It can come on its own or be triggered by exercise. When exercising

Exercise makes my AF worse (part 2)
Hi all, I posted a couple of days ago mentioning how I felt worse after exercise - felt like the slightest stroll strained my heart. Well it got worse! I had a bad night. AF kicked off around 1am as usual so had the Flec PIP, fell asleep and woke up with tachycardia and cold sweats at 5am. Calmed

BFP - I don’t believe it.
All, Today is OTD. Not my first had several (6/7 transfers including doubles over the years). As I left, I stopped by the reception and booked in my follow up as I was already the answer and I was expecting this cycle to be exactly like all the others. I was uber organised. Took my sharps bin

Atrial Fibrillation problem
I was first diagnosed with AF almost 20 years ago and am on medication since then. I am in AF all the time and on Bisoprolol 10mg and Edoxaban. In the last few weeks, I have felt my heart BPM have been faster and more erratic than usual. In the last few days it seems to have got worse, going up to 166
