Low blood pressure and AF ?
I had a cardioversion 6 years ago which corrected my persistence AF. Sadly I am in now back in persistent AF and experiencing problems with low blood pressure. When my BP is normal I feel great and have no other symptoms but when my BP drops I feel absolutely awful and have to rest. Have been taking

New to group
Hi I have just discovered this group and for my first post I though I would post my heart problems story. Last year I was diagnosed with Dilated Cardiomyopathy and had a severe case of heart failure. I had just turned 38 at the time. I had a bad case of flu for a few weeks before the diagnosis. All

Broad complex tachycardia
Has anyone experienced broad complex tachycardia on a 24 holter ? Should I be worried? GP has requested an echo! I had two episodes that lasted less than 3 seconds and no symptoms other than felt them. GP said my HR went to 146bpm. The rest was normal sinus rhythm. Feeling a bit stressed with it all

My Apple watch
I have been extremely surprised today when I saw my EP at the hospital. My watch was recording that I had AF and I felt dizzy and breathless. However my ECG tracing in the hospital recorded that I was in sinus rhythm. I have always trusted my watch but now in shock as it doesn’t seem very accurate.

Links to some articles comparing FUS to DBS for Essential Tremors
For the time being, there's more research and development in the ET field than the PD field as it relates to tremor dominant Parkinson's. Here's a few links that compares the two. https://www.neurologyreviews-digital.com/neurologyreviews/nr_march_2019_/MobilePagedArticle.action?articleId=1470923

Second heart operation
Hi my partner is waiting for a second heart operation. He had a valve repaired aged 18 the Ross procedure and done incredibly well off it. He has now been told its leaking is getting to much and will need a reoperation with 2 years. We have a 5 year daughter. Has anyone been through this?

Any advice welcome.
Hi, is there anyone like me that when diagnosed with heart failure had to lose over 100lbs in weight? Would love to hear tips for how to get safely started with exercise. I'm worried as I am so inactive that any form of exercise is going to make me worse as my anxiety is also bad at present.
