Onset/diagnosis after years
Good morning. I welcome you very warmly. This is my first post. I am not from UK, so my English is poor, sorry for any mistakes. In a nutshell: my aunt got sick in 2012. The diagnosis: Parkinson's. Treatment with levodopa had short-lived effects so doctors decided to use DBS therapy. DBS did not have

What should you expect from your GP after major heart surgery, shirt term and long term?
Apart from my initial call to request repeat warfarin prescription in which case I was told to go online, my GP has not acknowledged the last 2½ months of my urgent surgery. I am a congenital heart patient who had been trying to get cardio check ups in London every year to no avail. I had to take another

amlodipine and losartan
I have been taking 5mgs Amlodipine and 100 mgs Losartan in morning but after going into atrial fibrillation my blood pressure drops at lunch time. My GP has said to take losartan at night and amlodipine in morning. Has anyone take these medications at different times of day .

Changing from Adoxaban to Apixaban … what to expect?
Good morning forum. While waiting for a second cardioversion the medics have decided to change my anticoagulant from Adoxaban to Apixaban (the low dose Adoxaban I was on until this morning could be a bit borderline if I put on just a pound or two weight). A bit fed up as this delays the cardioversion

Has anyone experienced benefits from coq10
According to the following article Comparing the youngest age people to the oldest, the number of striatal dopamine transporters was cut by 46%, or 6.6% per decade of life.3 The rate of loss of dopamine transporters is accelerated in Parkinson's patients, and this age-related factor may suggest why

NSR...out of the blue!!
Last year I had 3 ablations for persistent AF, all deemed to be unsuccessful. 5 months after number 2 , I had 9 days of NSR but then went back into persistent AF with no further breakthroughs. Number 3 was arranged as a top up but after that did not result in NSR for more than a day it was decided AF

Side Effects from Metoprolol 25mg
I am taking Metoprolol 25mg halved twice a day for AFib and having side effects of almost passing out or a weird feeling of like I would be passing out which has happened twice now. I'm taking it with Eliquis. Is anyone else having this symptom?

Almost 6 weeks post surgery and still not gaining weight. Around 63kg and 177cm tall. It is really getting me down. I eat alot but just not making any difference on the scales. Any ideas?

Helping a parent through post op recovery
Hi, 1st post. As I travel home from London St Thomas's I reach out to anyone with advice as to how to best support and help my mum. We are four days into double heart bypass surgery and the sadness and anxiety about what lay ahead as well and truly kicked in (along with the AF)!!! I rack my brain

Back from EP after Cardioversion Failure
Now EP wants to try another Cardioversion in conjunction with amiodarone . I am concerned because I already have neuropathy in feet and fingers and I have read this medicine can worsen that. Anyone with experience with it?

DBS number of surgeries vary so much from 1 to 3. Main reason surgeons say safer less complications. Is there any proof?
my DBS surgery was completed in one hospital stay. The majority of others was 2-3 hospital stays. Is there research to support that there are less complications?

Still breathless after 3 years of open heart surgery
end of 2019 I had open heart surgery to repair my mitral valve, close small hole and do ablation for fibrillation. Not getting proper aftercare or physio after the operation, I had to rely on an app for all that , due to the covid situation. I did my best and after we got back to proper cardio exercise
