Advanced PC with a 90 years old
Hello all. My father got diagnosed in Oct. 2019. His case has been summarized in the profile. He's castration sensitive. After some readings, I'm not sure if the decision to switch from Bicalutamide to Enzalutamide is the right decision. Should he stay with Bicalutamide? Should he take Trelstar shot

Just prescribed Meloxicam by my GP for joint pain and headaches.
I take Eliquis and Amiodarone for my Afib and was wondering if anyone on here has taken Meloxicam while being treated for Afib. I've read a lot of conflicting feedback concerning the success/drawbacks of NSAIDs for people currently on an Afib regimen. Thanks for reading.

Anyone find anti arrythmic drug making afib worse?
I had an ablation July 18. I started having afib episodes a couple days later and doc gave me metrolpolol and flecainaide as PIP. They made me feel dizzy and I didn't tolerate real well but they did make the episode stop at the time. He wanted me on a regular regiment so we switched and he wanted

Ectopics and Digestive Difficulties
I have been dealing with diarrhea recently which I think is being causing by a Turmeric/Curcumin supplement I started taking. My ectopic heartbeats, probably mostly Premature Atrial Contractions (PACs), have started to flare up again. So I stopped taking the Turmeric/Curcumin supplement. Two years ago

Cyclist and Runner Exercising with Persistent Atrial Fibrillation - also considering an ablation
Hi – I originally posted the following (or at least a similar version) through the BHF link but didn’t get many replies. I would really like to hear from anyone who is a keen cyclist and/or runner who has developed persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) and either decided to live with it rather than try

I had a wonderful month of breathing and being active and then last Thursday something happened I don’t know a lot. PR 145 and the lowest it has been cents is in the 120s. I kept waiting hoping for

A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO UNDERSTANDING KAPLAN-MEIER CURVES
If you don't want to get a headache or confused (like me) don't read this post. I read it because I'm a masochist. And the reason I put it here is because I'm a sadist.👹👹 On the topic - most of us who like to read publications and dig deeper (according to our capabilities) constantly encounter data

afib But low heart rate
I had my cryo ablation at the end of June and have had a hard time still with afib almost everyday… well it finally slowed down to once a week ish but now when I get afib (according to Apple Watch) my heart rate doesn’t go very high. It’s between 60-100 fluctuating. Is that even still afib? Am I still

Ablation Success Rate
I have had AFib for as long as I can remember, but it has become gradually worse over the last 4 years. I have not had any surgery, and I haven't had a cardioversion. I am on rate control meds only. I will be seeing an EP in September, but my current cardiologist believes that I have been in AFib too

My mum is going to have ICD box - please share experiences :)
Hi, Until a few weeks ago, my mum didn’t (knowingly) have any heart problems but her resting heart rate went to 174 on her Fitbit and wouldn’t go down so she went to hospital. They had to give her a shock to get her heart rate down. They did an angiogram and realised she had 3 clogged arteries

CRTD and pacing
hi everyone, I had a CRTD pacemaker with defib inserted about 18 days ago as I had a cardiac arrest in hospital after being given a loading dose of digoxin whilst on Dronederone, following a cardioversion that initially worked but then put me into afib with high heart rate. I’ve heart failure now with

Best Sleeping Position for AFib
Subject may have been discussed but could not find recent posts. Have been having problems sleeping and noticed heart rate is higher than it should be (85). Search results. Right lateral position is proven to be most effective. Left lateral seems to trigger AFib. Problem is if you are like

Anticoagulants and PPIs
Hi everyone, I have just had an annual medication review over the phone with a pharmacist. I am taking Apixaban 5mg twice daily together with low dose Flecainide (50mg x 2 daily) and Bisoprolol (2.5mg daily). The latter to offset any possible side effects from Flecainide!! I have been in sinus rhythm

Hi, I survived an SCA ans am looking to better support my heart health
Hey guys, At the end of the day, I’m a middle aged lady working to improve my heart health before more time and heart function slips away, making the climb back up that much steeper. What’s given my heart health journey more dimension is that I was born with a ventricular septal defect that closed

More Afib questions
As we know, Afib questionsjust go on and on, so thank goodness for this forum where we can share so many questions and answers 🤗 Following my last post about the possibility of progression of Afib, I have managed to see an EP. It all happened very quickly as I was given a next day cancellation at

Post cardioversion
It's been 3 days since my cardioversion and I was hoping to be feeling far better than I do, I'm getting palpitations and still very tired, fatigued and feeling a bit shaky, my energy levels are so low. My Kardia Mobile ECG is showing a regular extra beat .... my wife says I'm expecting too much too
