Clopidogrel
In June 2023 I ended up in A&E with some odd symptoms and the doctors thought I had a TIA, after a MRI, CT with contrast, ECG, Blood tests, Echo and a heart monitor for a week they could not confirm or deny what happened that day but wanted to keep me on clopidogrel for 3 months just incase. Since then

cardioversion
How do people feel being in persistent AF? I have an appointment for a cardioversion pre op on Thursday after being told after an angiogram that everything the arteries were fine but I was in persistent AF. I have no symptoms and feel absolutely fine, the consultant did double my bisoprolol to lower

CKD + Asthma Medication
Has anyone found asthma medication that is kidney-safe? I just realized that Breo Elipta and Pulmicort are not. Anyone have suggestions that I can study?

cbd gummies
Hi everyone. I have heard from many of you that you use cbd for pain. Would you please share your experience with me. I have gone to 2 stores and whatever they recommended didn’t work. If you get them online and find that they REALLY HELP could you please share the website. Thank you. I’m just so tired

Arrhythmias with minimal exertion
Greetings, everyone, I am new to the forum and I am trying to figure out the cause of my heart rate spiking with minimal exertion. This is always accompanied by shortness of breath. I will provide some info and am hoping others will chime in with ideas. History: I realized back in July that my heart

low heart rate
hi, I was in hospital 6 weeks ago with a bad attack of A Fib. Came as a shock as I’d had palpitations on and off for a few seconds but nothing lasting hours. I was given Bisopropol and edoxaban to go along with the Ramipril and Amlodopine I was already on. The beta blocker must have worked as I went

Lp(a) results are in ….
I’ve recently had bloods taken to test for FH and Lp(a) levels. I had a heart attack in 2022 at aged 51 and was started on a whole ton of medications afterwards including Atorvastatin 80mg and then a bit later adding in 10mg Ezetimibe. My LDL cholesterol has not been able to reach the target of 1.4

It all started with a purple toe!
I've had high cholesterol for more than twenty years and although I've been prescribed statins, have never continued taking them until recently when I developed a purple toe. The doctor was concerned it was an embolism and I was sent for several tests and to see a consultant. It appears from an ECG

Laughing & CBD
Hi,My dad has CBD. He is in the final stages of this evil disease. He has episodes of laughing, where he can't stop himself. Sometimes it goes on for half hour or so. He has no speech so can't explain what he is thinking. It's as though it's an involuntary movement (just like when his arms and legs

Zanubrutinib and ACE inhibitors
I am approaching the start of treatment for the first time. I have for many years been taking an ACE inhibitor (perindropril) for high blood pressure, which is now well controlled. I have CLL, my lymphocyte count is doubling quickly (~2 months) and my haematologist is considering options for treatment

Heart rate tracker anomalies
Hi everyone, I'm getting quite anxious due to my Fitbit reporting strange peaks in my heart rate. This was 4:37 this morning, and back to 70bpm 3 mins later. I slept through this so have no idea if it's accurate. Yesterday it said my heart was 187bpm while I was walking briskly to meet someone for lunch

Referral
Hi all, I've just found out that I have
CKD
and have had it since 2017 and GP never told me. I'm stage 3. Should my GP be referring me to a specialist? Many thanks

chest pain 18 days after ablation
hello I am a 47 year old healthy female I had a heart ablation which the surgeon said went well. I stayed in two nights as my blood pressure kept dropping every time I would stand. I had a very heavy chest feeling almost like a balloon was surrounding my heart. I completely lost my appetite. The hospital

Flecainide side effects
Hello All I've had AFIB for 10 years and I've always preferred the Pill in the Pocket. Recently I was advised by my Consultant to try 50 mgs of flecainide and 1.25 mgs of Nebivolol twice a day. I'm only into my fifth day and I find I have constant heartburn since day two. Previously the PIP usage
