Heart Rhythm query…
Please can anyone explain ? My Kardia can show a result of Afib or SVEs even when my heart rhythm appears to be constant. It can show heart rhythm of say 61 throughout a 30 second trace, without fluctuation, yet reveal I have an irregular heart rate. As we are often told to check our pulse and if it’

Hip surgery
I'm due to have a hip replacement but nervous because I have paroxysmal A Fib. I' m on Edoxaban and have bisoprolol as a P I P, told to take after a few hours if it didn't resolve, but haven't had to take it . Would welcome some reassurance 😊

Not sure if this is related but pulse low at 40 and stays at that with occasional increase to 51. Have thyroid problems and advised to reduce

adrenal crisis?
i have been on pred for almost 3 years trying to wean myself off. i never seem to get below 8mgs until the symptoms return. i found that having half my dosage early in the morning really helped so thanks for that advice. i now have managed to reduce to 6mgs. and was beginning to congratulate myself.

CD20 Therapies (Ocrevus, Kesimpta, etc.) and potentially serious dental problems
This was an interesting post on the MS-blog. You have to get past the Dustin Hoffman in Marathon Man reference (which was a memorable scene!) to get down to the nitty gritty of why dental hygiene and regular checkups are so critical when when you're on certain MS therapies. https://multiple-sclerosis-research.org

Father with Stage 4 prostate cancer in 8 bones.
On 10/25/22 I took my dad (79 at the time) to the ER at the VA for escalating back pain and we walked out with a stage 4 prostate cancer diagnosis. When I brought him to the ER I expected them to tell me he had lung cancer as he is a lifelong smoker. Additionally, I had been worried about him all year

GCA, Afib, heart failure
I was concerned my Afib following a TIA Aug 23 wasn’t controlled. GP requested bloods for BNP plus CRP/ ESR which hadn’t been done since March. I have had bouts of fatigue which have up to now been linked to adrenals following a Syncathen test. The CRP came back as 15, ESR 14. Rheumatology helpline suggested

Is vitamin K2 ok with edoxaban?
I'm in the UK I'll keep it brief but I take edoxaban and bisoprolol for afib. I'm aware that historically Warfarin has a question mark over vitamin K1 for various reasons Some people seem to monitor using inr testing but my question is that more modern anti coagulants use a different mechanism of action
