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

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

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

Is anyone taking Erleada?
Hello, I received my first Eligard injection on June 6th. PSA dropped from 9 to 0.7 in 3 months. For my second ADT treatment my doctor wants to switch to Trelstar. From what I read it sounds like Eligard and Trelstar are very similar, same side effects. Doctor also wants to add Erleada. After checking

Angry following angiogram letter from a consultant.
I received the following letter from a consultant-addressed to my GP- following my aborted angiogram of last week. It’s fair to say that since I read it this morning I have had steam coming out of my ears, not to mention chest pains. I would value any feedback and advice how to proceed: “Mr [..] has

Think it's because I'm young and fit) Iv done alot of research and iv come to terms with I possibly have AFib. I still gym 3 times a week but if I gym

Coping with working full time with PMR
I've read many helpful suggestions on this site on how to manage a heavy workload and PMR. I have a demanding job with a lot of responsibility. I have sought to balance my symptoms (heavy, heavy harness, brain fog, fatigue and reduced confidence) with work for the past few months, with varying degrees

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
