Ectopics scaring me, lasting longer than usual.
This past week, for 3 days, I had almost continuous ectopics and for the first time, they even lasted all night which really scared me. I went to the A&E, the ECG was "normal" but during the 4 hours I was there, the telemetry did pick up ectopics. The doctor said there was nothing to raise a red flag

longer episodes of afib
hi,I guess I'd like to have opinions on longer episodes of afib, like 10 + days or longer. apart from the obvious actions such as keeping one's blood thin and resistant to clotting by either utilizing drugs or alternative blood thinning agents, is there anything else that one should consider, such as

Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation and Pancreatic
Hi all, I am new to this forum and just wanted to see if anyone has suffered the same symptoms as myself. I was rushed into hospital with infection markers of over 400, but showed no other symptoms with the exception of the 10 days of sickness. After weeks of investigations and blood test. Found I

help with the mental health side of vasculitis
hello all, I’ve just been recently diagnosed with suspected vasculitis. Waiting on skin biopsy results to determine which kind. Spent 5 days in hospital due not being able to walk from how swollen my legs and feet were plus covered all over with the typical vasculitis looking rash. Released from hospital

Finger misbehaving (!) ...Ulnar Deviation
Hello, I recently noticed my middle finger has gone bent towards the pinky finger. I couldn't believe my eyes and did internet search. It happens to people with RA and Lupus. A bit shocking. I have been doing mild squeezing exercise daily to help increase my hand strength. I think it may be due to

Looking for help with coming off aspirin & on to Xarelto
I've been diagnosed with possible atrial fibrillation. I've been taking a low dose (75mg) aspirin every night for about two weeks, seems to have helped me sleep as my heart doesn't thump. But my GP has prescribed Xarelto which I will start taking. However I read that aspirin can stay in your blood

ibs and chest pain
have had ibs for years now and get pain everyday then the anxiety kicks in and gives me chest pain. Had every scan known to man only to be told it’s just ibs,tried every medication and nothing works because the anxiety takes over anti anxiety medication and cbt does nothing to ease the pain.Doctor basically

Hot Legs RLS
Hi does anyone else suffer with burning legs at night & Restless Leg Syndrome.I have read that these can be symptoms of
CKD
I have struggled with this for many years but don't know if there is a connection. I virtually never get a proper night's sleep because of these symptoms.

New blood pressure procedure is ‘game-changing’ for people with uncontrolled hypertension, say doctors
New blood pressure procedure is ‘game-changing’ for people with uncontrolled hypertension, say doctors. Procedure reduces blood pressure without medications, say experts:‘Important step forward’ People with treatment-resistant hypertension could benefit from a new procedure that the FDA recently approved

Levo - am I worrying too much?
First, best wishes to all for Christmas and the New Year. I have been on Levo 100 for seven or so months now - the Accord brand. I got my new order by post about ten days ago and stupidly didn't open the parcel until Christmas day, when I needed to! They sent me Teva, so I have missed two days so far

Metoprol and arrythmias
Thanks first for all the comments in the past. I have long taken Toprol (now Metoprol in the last few weeks), 16 years, before I was diagnosed with Afib recently. And I noticed, through the years, that, say, ten minutes after taking it, I felt a very brief irregularity that then went away. Do any
