Cardiac MRI - Why am I being sent for this? What to expect?
I’ve just spoken to my cardiologist to give me the results of my 7 day holter and he told me that although my heart rate goes up and down a bit, they didn’t find any arrhythmias on the tape. I’m confused by that because I experience palpitations/dizziness/shortness of breath near daily, and I also use

Post Cardioversion Issues
Thank you to all those who helped and advised over weekend - saw consultant tonight - ecg shows some delayed heart actions/extra beats but not AF thankfully but we’re keeping meds the same at moment and maybe a new ambulatory BP check as if stop Flecainide could go back in to AF, reducing or stopping

Should I have an ablation?
Hi. Just looking for some advice. I’ll apologise in advance for the long post. I had ohs (mitral valve replacement) on jan 20th. I subsequently had atrial flutter twice in feb. On the first occasion it was stopped through meds and on the second I had cardioversion. I had no prior history of AF despite

5 months after aortic dissection repair
Hi I had an emergency repair of a type A aortic dissection in November '21 after being blue lighted up to Kings. I am a 66 year old female and had no inkling that there was anything wrong with my heart before this, and had put any symptoms like palpitations and dizzy spells down to extreme stress after

Digoxin added to Bisoprolol
Have been taking 3.75 msg bisoprolol for past 3 months with excellent results of hr of 61/63 and it was being considered whether to reduce slightly because of side effects. Suddenly my heart rate increased to 120 over a couple of days. ECG showed tachicardia but blood pressure excellent, full blood count

Colonoscopy
I’m due to have a colonoscopy the week after next and as I’m on flecainide (50mg x2) and bisoprolol (1.25mg) would appreciate some advice. I don’t think I need to stop the medication before the procedure, so I’ve read but does the midazolam interact with the drugs in any way please. I’m other words

Discharged from hospital
Discharged from the Heart Institute as my INR levels would not allow ablation to go ahead ( risk of clots). Started new meds - Digoxin, Ramipiril and Fruosemide to add to Bisoprolol, Atorvastatin and Warfarin and my heart rate has come down and no longer breathless but feel very lethargic ! Ablation

Bisoprolol dosage?
I am on 1.25mg of Bisoprolol daily but my atrial fibrillation episodes seem to be increasing since first starting this drug around 8 months ago. I never go a day without being aware of my pulse skipping beats. Although these episodes are for extremely short periods they are fairly frequent throughout

A Difficult Choice
I have persistent AF, coupled with a naturally low heart rate and more recently I had a number of blackouts which occurred when I was in NSR for a short while after a cardioversion. I will shortly be fitted with a 72 hour monitor to see if any indications come up to give some reason behind the blackouts

Can't sleep 😢
I'm not sure if I'm in the right place or not, and apologies if not. But I had a hurriedly fitted pacemaker on 1/2/22. Took a bit of getting my head around as I'd been to the doctors regarding near faint episodes over the last three years, my heart issues were never captured on an ecg and so I was

Slow arrhythmia and Famotidine
I stated getting occasional arrhythmia attacks with A F about 15 years ago. I used Bisoprolol as a pill in pocket and took 2.5mg when needed. Recently I started getting occasional low B.P. And low pulse rate (45-50) but no symptoms finger oximeter always above 95 but I now get normal pulse rate arrhythmia

Sotalol v Bisoprolol
My GP recently decided to discontinue my beta-blocker from 2 x 2.5 bisoprolol and take 1 x 50mg sotalol instead. (This decision was following an ICD firing) I had been taking the bisoprolol for the last ten years and monitoring my BP with a cuff device, where my BP had always shown a borderline normal

Coming off Bisoprolol - anxiety or withdrawal?
Hello :-). I posted a few months ago about tapering off of Bisoprolol. my brief story, I'm 46 and female. ended up in hospital after SVT (first time I've ever had an episode) and put on Bisoprolol 1.25mg. I've since seen a cardiologist and had tests, 2 week holter, ECG, echo and all show normal

Do I need to be checked out
Hi I had an AF episode a week ago and then went into fast Sinus with a heart beat of 140. 6 days later I went into Kings for a routine endoscopy for my 3 yearly verecies check for my liver cirrhosis. My heart was still tackicardic. First they could not get the camera down my throat due to severe swallowing
