My Kardia has arrived.
Good morning - if you are in a similar time zone!My Kardia arrived yesterday morning so of course I took many readings to try it out. I also tried it on my husband to see if it was working properly and it appears to be fine. My own readings however are all over the shop, so I wondered if other people

The arrhythmia nurse wants me to reduce my bisoprolol dose after my cardioversion - fear of early relapse.
I had a 2nd successful cardioversion 5 days ago, and the arrhythmia nurse told me to reduce my dose of bisoprolol immediately from 7.5mg to 5mg as my heart rate was around 50bpm. However, unless I maintain NSR for 6 weeks after the cardioversion, they won't offer another one, so I'm reluctant to reduce

What dosage are Carvedilol users on?
Afternoon, I've switched off bisoprolol onto Carvedilol and am still getting some episodes of Afib/ flutter with a high heart rate during exercise. I started on 3.25mg Carvedilol twice daily, now on 6.5mg twice daily, the next logical step is to jump to 12.5 mg twice daily. Just trying to see what

I have AF but it’s controlled so far with daily flecainide and bisoprolol. I get a three monthly blood test for iron overload but this week the doctor advised me to get a cholesterol blood test as well. All of my results for cholesterol were within the ranges but my doc advised that it’s recommended

Cardioversion with amiodarone or straight to ablation?
