Recovery post heart bypass.
My Grandad had a heart attack about 5 weeks ago, and subsequently was hospitalised. He then had a heart bypass just over two weeks ago, and thankfully he is now back at home. Since he came home he has struggled to sleep and has told my family and I that he is very dizzy, sick and tired. I can understand

I have had no change of meds (either dosage or type) . I take Ramipril, Amiodarone, Asprin, Bisoprolol

Today’s Leftover Gluten Free Quiche: Lunch 7-26-2022
This was my leftover piece of gluten free quiche from dinner last night. The crust is made with brown rice, Swiss cheese, yellow mustard, liquid eggs and bac’n pieces with nutmeg. It was really good after being put in the refrigerator for over night and part of this morning until early afternoon’s

Boron
Anyone know if boron and strontium citrate are okay to take together? Perhaps only one is better than the other. I have mild osteoporosis but am trying to aid a lumbar bone graft fusion from surgery 3 months ago. I take d3, k2, strontium citrate and biotin. I also am on Gabapentin for nerve pain. I

Ectopics
Good evening. I have recently been given the option to begin Flecainide for my ectopic heartbeats or learn to live with them (I find this very difficult). I've had open heart surgery but although successful, it didn't stop the ectopics at all. I've been on bisoprolol which I don't feel has helped

I diagnosed with Flutter end of June 22 after a couple of trips to A&E. prescribed Edoxaban 30mg with Bisosporol 2.5 daily reduced to 1.25 mg daily as I already have low BP. Episodes of possible Flutter are happening at least once a week. I do have etopics apparently and one ECG showed narrow tachycardia

Pace and Ablate - Symptoms of Heart Failure after pacemaker and AV node ablation
My pacemaker was inserted three weeks ago for symptomatic persistent a-fib that no longer responds to meds, cardioversion, or ablation. I had to wait for the AVN ablation since I am sensitive to silicone and the pacemaker parts are coated with it. I haven't had any rejection symptoms therefore my AV

Psychological and counselling support
My family has just had a very impactful experience, my son who is 22, had open heart surgery twice in the same month and we nearly lost him the second time around. He was in the hospital for 9 weeks all in total, but within that 9 weeks what he went through and what he saw day in day out, was patients

Spoken to GP at length this morning regarding this awful fatigue I am suffering from, and how awful I’ve felt since starting Amlodipine. He agreed reluctantly that as I’ve been slightly better since stopping Amlodipine a week ago he would remove it from my prescription, but has increased Cozar (Losartan

Update and meeting the team.
I’ve had lost of tests done over the past few months. I met up the the transplant team. I’m looking at 5-10 years for a bone marrow transplant, they said it could be earlier, as I’m still working and I’m well enough they don’t want to do it to early. I will need to take year off work, (when the time
