Digoxin
Hi should digoxin be used indefinitely, as this was prescribed after my mother’s operation and I’m not sure if this is making her symptoms worse.

Bristol Visit
I’d had a bad cough and cold over two weeks since Christmas.doctor said it was a virus. Then travelled to Bristol (5 hour) journey. Very tired but managed to see relations that evening. Went into AF in the night and took PIP. Flecainide(150 mg) didn’t seem to have the usual result of converting to sinus

Holiday Insurance
Hello everyone and Happy New Year! We are hoping to take a weeks holiday in Gran Canaria and I wondered if anyone could recommend a suitable Travel Insurance firm. I have had an Ablation for Atrial Flutter, but now have Atrial Fibrillation, kept in control with Digoxin and Bisoprolol. Many thanks Liz

Any experience of Amiodarone? The potential side effects sound frightening.
I was diagnosed with AF 9 months ago, but am new here. I was put on bisoprolol 10mg and rivaroxaban 20mg straightaway. The NHS wheels have turned very slowly for an echocardiogram, then finally an outpatient appointment in November. The registrar talked about amiodarone, mentioning some very unpleasant

8months post first ablation and ? slow AF episode
Hi everyone I am always interested to read other people’s experiences living with AF. We certainly have many variations in how the ectopic rhythms play out with different external and internal influences muddying the pool of symptoms and how we deal with it. I am nearly 8 months post my first PVI when

Alcohol and stopping due to HF
My husband has been a drinker averaging 6 cans a night for around 40 years. In Aug 2019 he found himself in hospital with swelling up to his abdomen and extreme coughing and breathlessness. As he hadn't visited a gp for 25 years , you can imagine this was a huge shock. Basically his diagnosis was heart

AF again!
1st time AF has reared it’s ugly head after ablation 5 years ago. I think it was brought on by being in a very stressful situation.I have just come home after 3 nights on the cardiology unit trying to chemically cardiovert me. Tried digoxin and upped my bisoprolol to twice a day to no effect. Remained

18 days post cryo-balloon ablation update
Here is another update on my post ablation journey. I hope it helps anyone who is considering an ablation. I have not had another migraine with aura since day 12. I have had some mild headaches still however. Still suffering from some ectopics daily, but I would not consider them to bothersome. Other

Hello all. I have recently had a CRT pacemaker fitted. A few days later I commenced taking a low dose of Bisoprolol. Now it may be related to the actual pacemaker procedure but I have felt slightly worse and reading the known side effects of Bisoprolol it seems that my symptoms i.e. light-headedness

Cryo-balloon ablation completed Nov. 5
Hi All, I am currently recovering from my cryo-ablation. I decided to write about my experiences as to possibly help others. This forum had been such a great place for support and learning for me that I want to give something back. I often commented on the forum, but I never fully introduced myself in

Digoxin
Does anyone take a low dose of digoxin daily to prevent AF? It was described by the A&E doctor following my first post ablation AF. I had gone 3 years plus without AF. In the notes with the digoxin it states lowers heart rate. Mine is normally 58/62 so I don't want it any lower. I still haven't

Foxgloves !
I’ve just had 2 days of heart irregularity, ectopics etc. On Monday I was planting lots of foxglove seedlings. Could there be a connection - digoxin etc.
