Hi I have AF no other indicators no chest pain ,angina. No heart attack. Only breathless walking up stairs, never on the flat. Anyone had a diagnostic angiogram as part of their pathway.

How can I gain weight on Kidney friendly diet?
I have
CKD
Stage 3b and am working with a nutritionist and adhering to a kidney friendly diet, but keep losing weight. I have a high metabolism and have always had a problem keeping weight on, but this diet is not providing me with enough high calorie options.

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

VAF Linked With Coronary Artery Calcification in MF

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

Too much to take in!
A lot going on with no answers. Firstly having been diagnosed with AF in May, I had my fourth episode whilst in France a couple of weeks ago. Previous to that I was asked whether I would take part in the DOCCLA system which is an extension of a hospital ward apparently where they monitor you at home

Bad test news - questions to ask doctor
I knew my husband had AF following an EKG prior to surgery in 2012. He was a college athlete and only health issues have been hip and knee replacements. They tried to shock him out of AF but it was unsuccessful. He was put on Xarelto 20 mg. He has always been asymptomatic and I was naive since he

This is a difficult post to write
I have had insomnia for 30 years now and it has only been recently that I have been diagnosed with
ckd
. I had been taking zopiclone for that amount of time and I often wonder if that was the culprit.

CKD

Slow and irregular heart rate with T3
I have taken NHS prescribed T3 only since 2012, three doses: 20 mcg 7am 10 mcg 3pm , 20 mcg 10 pm. 65 bpm is my normal resting rate. In the past I have had an occasional fall in bpm to mid 50's but found upping T3 dose for few days and changing to new packet (not short date) and my heart rate returned

Newly diagnosed AFib 40 year old
Hello everyone, last week I was diagnosed with persistent afib with lbbb and I'm terrified. I've been discharged with a bag of meds (bisoprolol, flecanide and rivaroxaban) and on the list for an ablation. I haven't been given much info and investigated everything myself. I just feel utterly depressed

The PSP & CBD Ice Cream Challenge 2023 Holdout
The PSP & CBD Ice Cream Challenge 2023 Holdout Okay admit it. How many of us have found ourselves in front of the refrigerator/freezer after we've gone to bed? Those midnight or later stomach grumblings won't let you sleep until they're satisfied. As so often depicted on TV commercials and television
