Smartwatch - A Useful Tool or Not?
Hi all. Smartwatches. Can I make clear, at this point that I have no affiliation with any technology company that makes, sells or designs mobile phones or smartwatches. With the latest and greatest fitness technology, users can be warned about early illnesses, symptoms of serious conditions such

Low Heart Rate
thanks to everyone who responded to my post. I am grateful for your comments and support. It is defined going to be worth raising with GP although this might involve a referral back to specialist who originally prescribed my heart meds. From what everyone’s experiences seem to suggest there are a myriad

Should I live with it?
I am 60 years old and diagnosed with persistent Afib this past November. Probably had it more than a year prior as it is asymptomatic being the type with irregular rhythm with my resting heart rate at 50-60 bpm. Went on Eliquis and have been cardioverted three times- first with no meds and NSF only

Chronic flank pain and atrophy...
I ordered my own labs for three months in a row to take to a nephrologist, and seeing the consistently 60's egfr and other labs, plus the physical damage, he diagnosed Stage 2
CKD
. I was told to just stop taking ibuprofen and change my diet. That's it.

VitD, Mg, CoQ10 make a difference? and Cardiologist update
it’s been 8 months since CV and all good at my appointment, he said my reduction of metoprolol to 8.5mg is very low but still might be enough to reduce that adrenaline when my heart wants to play up during exercise or when I’m under stress, so I will stay on it and might even reduce or stop the morning

I'm 85 and have suffered with AF as long as I can remember. I recall worrying about my heart missing beats and thinking the worst. Specialist doctors tried Flecanide and Sotolol which helped by limiting my episodes paroxysmally but I was still aware of AF when playing tennis and golf. My doctor got permission

Cardioversion NHS waiting time.
Newbie here. Persistent AFib for 3m. Echocardiogram done. Cardioversion likely to be recommended. Wondered what waiting times people were experiencing? Thanks for any contributions.

Arrhythmia after open heart surgery - any others with similiar experiences?
Hi there, I'm new to this forum and looking forward to learning from you all. 8 weeks ago I had open heart surgey to correct a large atrial septal defect (hole in the heart). It was diagnosed at Christmas. Prior to this I had no cardiac symptoms at all - I was power lifting in the gym, cycling a 20km

Potential secondary hypothyroidism - anything specific to ask the Dr/push for?
) 83 mL/min/1.73m2 (eGFR 60-89 with a note of
CKD
stage G2 of other evidence of kidney damage) Serum folate 3.7ug/L (3.8-26.8) My thyroid result was similar to the past few years and somewhat expected but the high cholesterol and reduced kidney function were a surprise.

Post DC Cardioversion advice
My husband has had AF jumpy heart rhythm for years and has meds for slightly high BP - Bisoprolol and Ramipril, but has been getting a bit tired and breathless on exertion. So he had DC Cardioversion yesterday and is in sinus. But his resting heart rate is hovering around 50 and if he does anything

Amiodarone
I just wanted to clear up such negative responses to amiodarone. What is the mortality rate for amiodarone? In unadjusted analysis, amiodarone recipients had a slightly higher risk of death compared to non-recipients in the full cohort (87 vs 73 deaths per 1,000 person-years; P<0.001) but not in the

Working out after AFIB
I saw my EP for a 90 day check up post ablation a few weeks ago. One of my questions was when can I resume more intense cardio workouts? I'm back to weight training, yoga, walking and rowing (on machine), but am nervous about getting my heart rate too high. My history: 3 (that I knew of) episodes

High diastolic blood p Niraparib
Hi, Blood pressure going up again on Niraparib, but it does just seem to be the bottom number, the diastolic. Has anybody got any success stories of sorting this bit with meds? Had bad reaction to calcium channel blocker. Currently taking Candesartan, though wanting to increase dose but not been on
