Has anyone ever been told that ablation will not work for them?
Hi all i am quite baffled as to why private cardiologist has referred me to one of his colleagues for ablation. I have been told numerous times, by nhs cardiologists, that ablation will not work to treat my afib. If fact one previous doctor said, "Ablation is out of the question due to extent of enlarged

If anyone is able to offer suggestions on pain relief ... even the green, leafy stuff (
CBD
) because I'm now getting so desperate to get sleep. If anyone wishes to offer me the benefit of their experiences in dealing with osteopathic pain I'd welcome it. Thanks for reading my moan. John

PMR without steroids?
We're thinking of things like
CBD
, serrapeptase, ibuprofen, hot showers, massage therapy, etc. We're pretty sure his Dad had undiagnosed PMR for about three years while he was in his mid fifties and is now in his 80's and thriving. Sorry if these seem like stupid questions...

paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
I have posted re my paroxysmal AF with episodes very fast heart rate requiring treatment in hospital, but am now concerned about ever getting the Ablation I am waiting for. Have just found a letter August, which says “we’ll consider ablation if another very fast heart rate episode occurs”. Well so

Amiodarone and AF
I had cardioversion in August at Bart’s to restore sinus rhythm after being in persistent AF for 6 months. Been on amiodarone and pleased to report not a single flutter since. Had transformed my life. Cardiologist wants to reduce my dose and later change me to another drug. Does anyone have experience

Supraventricular Ectopies
I’m looking for reassurance, my friends. I am plagued by many palpitations these days, which my Kardia says are mostly SVEs, with a bit of Afib thrown in - unless of course Kardia is incorrect and they are all Afib ! I see a cardiologist annually and actually, because I complained of these palpitations

In response to Troubleandstrife's request the poem I wrote about my husband no longer being crippled by CBD
Niggly (Nigel B) His wicked sense of humour will have now come to the fore His love of birds and insects will have now returned once more. His ability to answer each and every quiz will once more be in place, and his laughing eyes and lovely smile will now be on his face. He is no longer crippled

So after 4.5 years in Nigeria and an APS diagnosis in summer 2020 I’m coming back to the U.K. In many ways I’m looking forward to it and I know my consultants - all 3 of them - will be much more comfortable with me being near better medical care (APS, warfarin and epilepsy are not a good combination
