Slow heart rate
I have been diagnosed with bradycardia. One electrophysiologist wants me to have a pacemaker and another (for a second opinion) says I don't need one. I function very well during the day, have a good night's sleep and am not fatigued. The slow heart rate started when a holter monitor was put on

Fissure or fistula
For the last few weeks I have been getting stabbing pains up the rear exit. Like I sat on a needle!! I used to suffer a lot with piles but not bled for about a year now. But today after large bm I bled! What concerns me is I should be having a camera look at my bladder on Saturday under local anaesthetic

Glasgow EP?
Sadly, my lovely English EP, Dr Peter Stafford, has retired. My paroxysmal arrhythmias look as if they may be returning after a big, sucessful, ablation three years ago- this time in the form of episodes of a very slow heart rate. As I now live in Scotland and was discharged from Glenfield after

past my sell by date part 3
I sort of struck lucky with a new gp who ordered a raft of tests “Sort of” because whereas I couldn’t understand some results I have been booked in for a US urinary tract because neither antibiotics or pessaries helped. Despite already taking amlodipine for bp my latest reading is 150/75. An ECG was

Premature cardiac risk
“20” percent of humans have elevated lipoprotein (a), putting them at risk for heart attack, stroke, and aortic stenosis. Unfortunately, only 3/10 of a percent (.3 percent ) of U.S. primary care physicians ever test their patients, unlike physicians in the EU and Canada. The link below will offer more

Tall tales
New Scientist, 11th November edition (p18) has an interesting article. Researchers at Uni of Bristol examined records of 454,000 adults and found that "... taller people have a greater risk of having irregular heart rate." Further, that those "... taller than average at age 10 were more likely as an

bisoprolol reduction
Thank you everyone for your replies. After my visit to A and E on Sunday the doctor told me to take an additional 1.25mg of bisoprolol for 3 days so now taking 2.50mg per day. I think I was a little naive but trusted the hospital to reduce to 1.25 after my cardioversion he said my heart rate was

Thoughts on preventing more arryrhmias. Now 2 ablations down, on having been persistently in AF
Just checking in , after my review with my Electrophysiologist . 2nd Ablation was Feb 23rd 2022. He says I am doing very well, for where I was in persistent and a lot of arrythmias, when he ablated. Also on my asking about prognosis that hopefully this will now sustain, with v short episodes of AF

Update after cardiac catheterization.
First a BIG THANK YOU for all the advice and support. I felt you with me every step of the way. The catheterization showed no narrowing of the major cardiac arteries. But head cardiologist came and said all my symptoms were classic heart attack and clearly something was blocked...so i have a bucket

Weight loss, skin breakdown with burning pain
Anyway, have had
ckd
symptoms this week with intake. Couldn't eat usual amount without nausea, palpitations and elevated bp, so I backed off intake for 2-3 days. Symptoms reduced but now skin burning on coccyx and hips.
