I stupidly took to many over the counter tablets over a course of a month ( paracetamol) , I ended up in ANE but blood work come back ok and wasn’t ever treated however I’m worried I left it to long to go to the hospital

new INR tester
I have been diagnosed with APS for 25 years after having a stroke at 37 years. My treatment medication treatment regime is warfarin plus baby aspirin. I have my INR completed between 1-3 weeks apart but usually every two weeks due to its variability. I have received a coaguchek INRange point of care

Should I push for more help
UK, 46M So I'm 3 months post diagnosis, only taking 5mg Bisoprolol as a rate control strategy. I have episodes of what I believe to be Afib (very irregular rhythm) regularly - since tracking them at the start of April I've had 47. Longest run without an episode has been 6 days. They are a roughly

Strophantus D4 heart arrhythmia
I have already asked recently about heart arrhythmia since Pred. And it seems many people have that problem. I have been taking Strophantus D4 tablets for a few weeks and have had no more heart attacks at night. Sometimes I still have little heart palpitations. I hope it lasts 🤞🏻

Sweetened drinks linked to atrial fibrillation risk
Many, many years ago, I used to occasionally have a gin and tonic or angostura and tonic (if driving). And became convinced that, if the tonic contained saccharin, I would likely end up having a relatively high heart rate. But this was long before I had any idea about afib. As I hate the taste of saccharin

Heart Rhythm query…
Please can anyone explain ? My Kardia can show a result of Afib or SVEs even when my heart rhythm appears to be constant. It can show heart rhythm of say 61 throughout a 30 second trace, without fluctuation, yet reveal I have an irregular heart rate. As we are often told to check our pulse and if it’

Hip surgery
I'm due to have a hip replacement but nervous because I have paroxysmal A Fib. I' m on Edoxaban and have bisoprolol as a P I P, told to take after a few hours if it didn't resolve, but haven't had to take it . Would welcome some reassurance 😊

Advice Please
Please accept apologies if this is not the correct support group - just concerned as having Atrial Fibrillation from first thing in morning until I go to sleep. Not sure if this is related but pulse low at 40 and stays at that with occasional increase to 51. Have thyroid problems and advised to reduce

Is musculosketetal condition associated with PMR
I have not written on the form for a while but would like your thoughts on the following: On Sunday night and all day Monday I had chest pain especially when breathing in, and both shoulders and upper back were sore. It was still very painful on Tuesday so I phoned GP and was told as it was chest pains

Do you Know Your Pulse?
Do you know what a normal resting heart rhythm is? Do you know what an irregular heart rhythm feels like? Did you know that an irregular pulse can be the very early warning signs of an arrhythmia? It is vital you monitor your heart rhythm by taking regular pulse checks. For further information

GCA, Afib, heart failure
I was concerned my Afib following a TIA Aug 23 wasn’t controlled. GP requested bloods for BNP plus CRP/ ESR which hadn’t been done since March. I have had bouts of fatigue which have up to now been linked to adrenals following a Syncathen test. The CRP came back as 15, ESR 14. Rheumatology helpline suggested

Is vitamin K2 ok with edoxaban?
I'm in the UK I'll keep it brief but I take edoxaban and bisoprolol for afib. I'm aware that historically Warfarin has a question mark over vitamin K1 for various reasons Some people seem to monitor using inr testing but my question is that more modern anti coagulants use a different mechanism of action

"When to Hold, When to Fold"...or "a Bird in the Hand..."
Since first experiencing Afib 4 years ago, I have been advised off and on to consider ablation. Many people seem to think that ablation cured or reduced their Afib, while others have reported disappointing ineffectiveness and complications. It is difficult to pin down statistical assessments because

Measuring force of heart beats?
Hi. I'm Amelia. New here. Age 63. Paroxysmal AFib since at least 2015. Dx in 2018. Rx Metoprolol. Question: is there any way of measuring the force of your irregular heartbeats? Just wondering if that could explain the difference between people who don't feel their Afib and people that feel all of it
