Open heart surgery
Hi, I had surgery on the 11 of this month to repair my mitral valve, fix small hole in the heart and do ablation at the same time. Op went well but here we are nearly 3 weeks later and I still have pain , especially in my left side, with taking painkillers it wakes me up after about 5 hours sleep.

Newly diagnosed with cardiomyopathy
Hello everyone. I was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy last week and am pretty shocked and disappointed as I had open heart surgery (aniloplasty) to repair my mitral valve in June 2018 and my cardiologist has always said I was doing very well at my regular checkups since then. Last week's FEVI was 41%

Heart rate problem.
Hi folks, had heart surgery 14 months ago. Mitral valve repair. Felt great for 9 months then ectopics, 22%. Lasted about 2 months then gradually faded away to almost nil. So that's great, except that now occasionally when I lie down in bed to sleep my heart rate suddenly ups a gear to around 100 per

Shoulder pain following open heart surgery. One year on!
Good morning, I had open heart surgery over a year now. I was made aware at the time that I would experience some 'uncomfortable' pain in my back and shoulders for some months after the op, from where my body is manipulated during the procedure. It has since been over a year and I am suffering with terrible

What do I do?
Have just had a phone call from my health centre. The doctor is concerned about my cholesterol level. (10). This was the level I had when I was first tested on a whim whilst in holiday over 20 years ago. I watched my diet and got it down to 6 something but doctors said I should go on statins. Was given

Dressler’s syndrome, a form of pericarditis
Has anyone on here experienced Dressler’s syndrome, this is a form of pericarditis which develops after heart surgery? There is very little information about this condition as it is quite rare nowadays

Ablation No 4
I had my 4th ablation on Friday at the Royal Brompton and have ended up with a pacemaker due to Sick Sinus Syndrome. Apart from the usual tiredness and bruising I feel fine. Have noticed a few ectopic beats but after being in AF since mid July it's nice to see NORMAL on my Kardia. All the best Tim

Using correct terminology
There is, and always will be debates about the terminology sometimes used on this forum. I think it is sometimes easy for folk to forget that the primary purpose of the forum is to help AF patients to understand their condition better and how best to cope with their symptoms. Cast your memories back

45 mins conversation with dr. Jeanmonod regarding FUS
Hi all! I just spoke with dr. J about my situation. In my case he said the PD looks very easy (after 4 years) and he recommended an evaluation exam to determine if I really need a FUS surgery at this time. He said I'm at the border line. The cost of that it will be 2000 CF which will be subtracted from
