A bit of advice please from you experts

GOING FORWARD
Yesterday I met with my EP for my two week follow up. The follow up is for my failed cardioversion. They tried three times to Shockett with no NSR. Yesterday was to be about what’s next. My body responds to things usually but does not stay for very long. I had a typical flutter up until two weeks ago

Diltiazem and Digoxin problems
Hi Everyone,Apologies for not posting much to date, but I have been reading posts frequently. For several years I have had problems with atrial fibrillation, was on Nebivolol but as I have Raynauds these made it worse. But overall was bearable. Had two cardiac ablations. The first in 2019 seemed to

Flecainide and Digoxin
My first post after lurking a good while and sorry if it is over long, I am very confused at present, being diagnosed has been such a shock. In feb 2022 I spent 3 days in hospital with Afib and high blood pressure (180/104) no symptoms or pain etc, discharged with bisoprolol, ramipril and rivaroxaban

Covid Treatment besides antivirals?
My husband tested positive for covid this morning and is on an antiviral medication. I emailed my EP and asked if I would be able to take an antiviral if I should catch it from my husband. Because my medications include Xarelto, Atorvastatin and Digoxin , he said he would not want me on an antiviral

Newby wondering what medicine to take for sickness and diarrhoea?
Hello everyone 🤗, this is my first proper post after dipping in and out to read your chats which I have found invaluable to settle my nerves somewhat after being diagnosed with Afib. However, I’m suffering with sickness and diarrhoea and am aware that while on the afib drugs you have to be careful what

Digoxin side effects or post covid
I just had a blood check to find that in the last few months my iron levels have dropped quite a bit. Now I have read that digoxin can affect iron levels and so can post covid . I have a fairly mild infection about 8 weeks ago. I also understand low iron can actually cause a fib? Any ideas welcome

Fitbit for a fib?
hi all. My husband has had paroxysmal a fib for last 4 years and takes digoxin. We use the Kardia mobile with great success. I’m wondering whether to get him either a Fitbit or more expensive Apple Watch so he can keep an eye on how high his rate goes while out on his daily walk. I don’t think it’s

how do you deal with sudden dizziness
hi My husband has a fib since being diagnosed in 2018. He is an otherwise fit and healthy 76 year old. Walks a lot not overweight no smoking and no alcohol since diagnosis. Is on digoxin and Rivaroxaban once a day. He gets a fib on average for about 24 hours every few weeks. Never found a trigger.

Acceptance of Permanent AF
Hi everyone Well I have now had to accept that we have exhausted all treatment and I am now in permanent AF. My rate is still high, 100 at rest and 130 on movement for 7 weeks now. I started Digoxin and stopped Flec last Friday and seems to be working slowly, aiming to 70/80 bpm at rest. If this

Update on my Pace and Ablate
Last Friday I went for the ablation of my sinus node in great trepidation but I needn't have worried as it all went like clockwork. The sedation was wonderful and I was back on the ward within an hour and home in time for tea! The first couple of days were a bit uncomfortable and I dropped off the

What happens next please?
Advice sought from those further on the path please. I had a successful cardio version in July after 6.5 months of high rate permanent AF not well controlled by digoxin, bisoprolol, furosemide, and apixaban. I was told to just stop the digoxin after the cardio version which left me on 10mg of bisoprolol

AF and the flu and COVID injections
I have had PAF for some 10 years now and it has always been triggered by an infection of some sort. Each time apart from once I was converted back into sinus rhythm by DC Cardiovsion. This week I went into fast AF again and was again taken to hospital. At the time I was not able to put my finger on

More decisions!!
Well I saw Dr Pepper yesterday and all much as expected. I've moved to persistent AF and a cardioversion would be pointless. I keep self converting the back to AF. Sob. So options are... Live with it as long as my rate comes down to the 80s, so will be trying Digoxin after my holiday in Norfolk.
