Am I now in permanent AF?
Just a brief introduction , I have been suffering from AF for about 5 years and after 3 ablations ,1 was for flutter, I was getting episodes every 2 to 3 weeks usually lasting 4 to 6 hours. These episodes are usually terminated by PIP flecainide and metoprolol . I’m used to them now and basically ride

May the Fourth be with me!
Headed to my fourth ablation today after many deliberations. Cardioversion took care of an atrial tachycardia episode back in February. Per EP’s instructions, came off metoprolol and flecainide four days prior to today … and amazingly no Afib or flutter. In fact, feeling quite well. So wondering if I

Edoxaban dangers
Yesterday, 28 Mar 22, I received a letter from my local surgery stating that a review of my medication had taken place by a consultant cardioligist and that I was being moved from Apixaban to Edoxaban as it was cheaper and was not detrimental to my health.

AFib, Post Ablation, & Sex
I haven't seen this topic here and I don't know if it's within the guidelines but here goes: What relationship have folks here experienced between sex, Afib, and the post-Ablation period? When my Afib started, there was some correlation between having episodes after having had sex. Apparently, sexual

Heart valve replacement.
Hi everyone. Hope you are all OK. I have been told today that I need open heart surgery to replace a leaky heart valve. I am sending myself round the bend as I am scared stiff at the thought of this surgery. Any help or advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated. If anyone has had this done

Thinning skin and purpura from inhaled steroids
Hi all. I have been taking a low dose inhaler ( fostair 100/6 for the last 3 years and already have issues with crepe paper skin, which cuts easily. Also if a bang my arm or even give it a scratch I get blood under the surface ( think that’s what is called purpura) I’m only 58 and always have kept fit

First degree AV block - can it be caused by bisoprolol?
Hi All, This morning I did a ‘random’ Kardia (6L) ECG and it came back that I was in sinus Rythm with wide QRS. It was a one off and five mins later I did another one (and many others since) and all in normal SR. I sent it off for a clinician review as I’ve been worried about it all day and they’ve come

Post surgical stretching
I am now 2 weeks post open heart surgery for AVR. I have read on this site NOT to raise my arms above shoulder height as part of cardiac rehab, yet US hospital sites do recommend raising an arm alternatively over head to keep shoulders etc moving. Thoughts pls? I am starting to ache in my neck and shoulder
