Post Ablation complications
Had persistent fast AFib since Nov 23, decided to go private route as my health was deteriorating. Echocardiogram Jan 24 showers severe mitral regurgitation, and ejection fraction 28%. Lots more drugs added to the cocktail and now under the care of both a cardiologist and an Electrophysiologist. Drugs

How to get out of AF advice please
I’ve undergone two cardioversions, and each time, about 10-11 weeks later, I’ve reverted back into atrial fibrillation (AF), despite initially being in normal sinus rhythm post-procedure. Following the first cardioversion, I remained in normal rhythm for 12 weeks before slipping back into AF, which

Edoxaban and dreams and nightmares ...... Part 2
Been figuring the best way to write my thanks to you all for your comments on Part 1, so, tryin’ this.

Atorvastatin
My cholesterol was always low until I went through the dreaded menopause which turned me upside down and inside out! My anxiety shot through the roof and my cholesterol with it! I’ve always been slim fit and healthy. Never smoked and drank minimal alcohol. My diet is very healthy. No red meat or processed

clopidogrel
I’m taking clopidogrel and aspirin following a Watchman implant. I feel fatigued all day, foggy—just as I did on metoprolol and did even more so on amiodarone. I also bruise more easily and bleed more flowingly on clopidogrel than on apixaban, which I stopped when I started a three-month course of

Elevated Diastolic Blood Pressure & Thyroid?
I’ve read that thyroid issues can increase diastolic blood pressure while systolic remains normal. I’ve been seeing a slight increase / trend with this. Has anyone else seen this and it meant levothyroxine increase needed?

Please check!
Earlier today I posted the link to the PBC Foundaton's Urso calculator. There are so many posts and questions relating to Urso that I thought it was important for everyone to make sure they are on the right dose. This 'calculator' is also available on the PBC app. Knowing you are taking the right dose

Carvedilol and Urso bowl changes
I’ve been on cavedilol medication since May 2023 and Urso since 2022, up until a few weeks ago I’ve suffered a lot of dioreah which started when at the same time when when the Dr prescribed me ferris sulphate for low iron. I know this has a lot of gastric issue so stopped that a week ago. I still have

Unusual positional ectopics and PAF
A few days ago, on turning onto my right side to go to sleep, after about 30 minutes I noticed palpitations (rather “heavy”ectopics and a slower than usual heartbeat which was “stuttering”) This lasted for several hours until I fell asleep. Last night this pattern repeated again, but this time when

varices grade 2
My consultant physician did a surveillance Gastroscopy which showed 2 varices grade 2, as I was taking Carvedilol twice daily he has decided no further action is required. Having had a burst varice in the past which put me in hospital for a week. I am confused to why he’s decided not to band them surely

Drinking & Thyroid
Just wondered if many of you with an underactive thyroid drink alcohol? Not an excessive amount but a few drinks perhaps. Of late and since being diagnosed with one I feel like my tolerance for it is terrible and one or two glasses of wine can wipe me out the next day. Is there any link? Be great to
