No more multiple PVCs after daily sauna
I went into
cardiac
arrest
almost 2 years ago when I was rapid afib. I now have a pacemaker defibrilator. Thanks to my diet,rich in potassium and magnesium, I have been afib free most of the time. Though at times I still had multiple PVC's, bigeminy usually at lunch time.

Afib/Flutter/Palps - Ross procedure.
it may be worth noting that I had a
cardiac
arrest
in the may due to deterioration of heart health in the May 2022. Has anyone else experienced these after surgery ? Will they ever go away? Or is it just the norm now? thanks x

Local Anaesthetic with bisoprolol - for non dental surgical procedures.
It was only afterwards that I read the NICE guidelines that lidocaine can produce a severe reaction with bisoprolol and can cause
cardiac
arrest
, so isn’t to be given. I asked what anaesthesia it would be for this next procedure and was told I’d be given lidocaine again.

URGENT ADVICE - Challenge Doctors
ICU doctors are refusing to give my father further treatment & stated if he deteriorates they will not get involved as they believe he will not wake up from his coma but he has only been out of sedation for 13 days following a
cardiac
arrest
. He is not brain dead but has hypoxia brain injury.

Anaemia or CLL? Time for re-referral?
Well...... over the past 3 years my wife has suffered Covid, Shingles, breast cancer and a
cardiac
arrest
in that order. Very traumatic, especially for a fitness ‘guru’.

”Aggressive” AF
The last ablation was in June then in July, I had a
cardiac
arrest
in Crete (apparently unrelated to AF). I now have an ICD fitted but AF is debilitating me.

Tikosyn (Dofetilide)?
Apparently it is less toxic in the long run than Amiodarone, but it requires three-days in the hospital at the outset to monitor no adverse reactions (which can include
cardiac
arrest
).

Cardiac Arrest recovery
A year ago I had a C/A ,you don’t feel any pain you just collapse. Woke up three days later in hospital, I had tubes in places that I did not know I had. A year on and my recovery is almost there , I still get very tired quickly. The care and attention that I received in hospital was the best and has

What is an AED? 🤔
The first and often only symptom of a sudden
cardiac
arrest
is when someone faints. Sudden
Cardiac
Arrest
(SCA) is a condition in which the heart stops beating suddenly and unexpectedly due to a malfunction in the heart’s electrical system.

Anyone with heart scar tissue?
I found out I had some scar tissue after a heart MRI following a sustained ventricular tachycardia
cardiac
arrest
in 2021, I am on beta blocker sotalol 80mg twice a day. I would be curious to know if there are others in a similar situation and what do they do to stay healthy .

Dad not waking up from induced coma after Sudden Cardiac Arrest, What are his chances? Signs of 'waking up'?
My Dad is 54 years old and collapsed at work last Friday 03/03/2023 from Sudden
Cardiac
Arrest
. No symptoms, no chest pains, no warning signs. He is moderately fit, not a heavy drinker but is a heavy smoker and they found a blocked valve that had built up for months allegedly due to the smoking.
