Hypertension and blood pressure
Hello I have been struggling lately having what I call ‘funny turns’ they are totally random and happen at different times, some weeks none, other weeks 3 or 4 times. My heart starts beating fast, chest pounding and go all hot and dizzy, thinking I am going to collapse if it doesn’t pass. I have bought

Clonazepam for freezing gait?
My husband's
CBD
has progressed to the point where he can hardly walk at all, even holding on to me. Getting him down the hall to the toilet and back to his lift chair is challenging. He drags his left foot and every few steps he freezes and can't continue for several seconds.

What would you expect?
Hi Everyone, Just thought I’d ask here as the help I’ve received on here has been invaluable. Since my Cardioversion in Jan 2022 I have been in a sinus rhythm. I was originally told prior to the Cardioversion that if 6 months after I’m still in a sinus rhythm. I would be able to come off the edoxaban

It's not the adrenals it’s AF!
I kept thinking it was because of my tapering: I was short of breath, felt “chesty” and dizzy. The monitor I wore showed <1% incidence of AF but still at risk for stroke- so Eliquis for me. Scheduled for a visit to the electrophysiology lab for assessment. I believe it’s getting more frequent. Stopped

Hypertension and Amlodipine
Hi, community. I have a (new) diagnosis of hypertension, which means yet another tablet to add to my cocktail. The proposed first line treatment, apparently, is Amlodipine. However, I am wary of this drug, in case it worsens my Erythromelalgia, which is pretty bad anyway, and getting worse all by

Loop recorder (and other feedback)
So, a few weeks ago I passed out while sitting next to my wife - which made her panic. Short version of the story is that the episode was followed by influenza so may have been the beginning of that. Also an ECG I had shortly after passing out was normal. (FYI I am 49 and healthy). But she insisted

PAF - move to PiP only
Hi Can anyone tell me of their experiences of moving from daily medication (Flecainide) to PiP only? Heart attack in 2019, out of the blue - fit & healthy. Investigations - no real culprit - eventually a few months later, after symptoms & further investigations, diagnosed with paroxysmal AFib. Basically

What is Left Atrial Rhythm and is it related to Afib?
I have paroxysmal Afib, which appears to be well managed with Flecainide and Metoprolol. I am having an unrelated medical procedure next week so my anaesthetist sent me for an ECG, which I had to drop back to her office. After getting the ECG done by a nurse at my local GP's rooms, the nurse took the

To ablate or not to ablate?
I have paroxysmal AF, diagnosed in early 2020, on 5 mg bisoprolol and Edoxaban. I am highly symptomatic when I have an event, with fast heart rate, strong palpitations, heart feeling as though it will escape from my chest, but no dizziness etc. and this can last for up to 12 hours before it reverts

Further evidence that even moderate exercise is good for your long term health - particularly when you have CLL!
I've often observed that our immediate response when we are diagnosed with CLL, is to re-evaluate our diet (good) and look at how we can extend our time before treatment and improve our life expectancy by taking supplements, for which there limited evidence, particularly when it comes to hopes of boosting

Newbie. What do you do?
Hello, New to this. Had my first episode about 6 weeks ago but could have been AF for weeks as no symptoms. Had cardio version put on bisoprolol, apixaban and ramipril. Since then I have had 3 episodes; 2 lasting a couple of hours and this 3rd one is still going on past 5hrs. Decided to take my evening

Ablation Done
After much worrying on my part, I had my ablation done at Barts on Friday and I'm not dead yet! Despite the long list of side effects which might have occurred according to the AF Ablation help sheet, all I had was a mild(ish) migraine on the Friday night. No problems with bleeding from the site or indeed

Fitbit vs radial pulse
During my perceived afib episodes of late my Fitbit and oximeter reads much higher than taking my pulse manually. Sometimes the the Fitbit is double the radial rate. So I question if I'm in an afib episode. Is the Fitbit and oximeter wrong? I don't have any other symptoms so it's unclear.

Chemical names for medication/new oxygen tank & prescription
1.Last week i was hosputalised for the 14th time over the dropping of my oxygen levels If theres one thing everytime ive noticed is the doctors nurses always call the medication by their chemical names instead of the brand name. For example one of my epilepsy tablets ive always called Keppra But

Low blood pressure from ADT? After almost 2 years on Orgovyx my blood pressure continues to drop.
I’ve seen reports here where most men on ADT have rises in blood pressure. Mine continues to drop dramatically while exercising and sometimes just walking around the house. But normal blood pressure is 112/80 with a resting rate of 52 and O2 levels at 95 to 97.
