Ntpobnp blood test
Last week i had a
echocardiogram
which has come back good!!! Though my bnp level is 600... i am 38. So too high. My consultant is not worried though. Does this sound right?? Does a high bnp always mean heart failure? Back 2 years ago my result said 33381 !!!

Have experienced AF on & off for the best part of a year, had holter meter fitted for 7 days with no symptoms showing, ECG &
Echocardiogram

AF diagnosis but feeling suffocated when not in AF as well??
Looks like I might have an enlarged heart, had
echocardiogram
done about 6 or more weeks ago, and heart monitor for 7 days. I know they definately captured some of my issues because of a few of the days I was so ill.

Heart flutter, dizziness and high heart rate
I went to doctor got an ecg,
echocardiogram
and blood tests. All came back fine although I have a small hole in my heart and when I exercise my heart rate increases very quickly. When I run my heart rate sits between 180- 200 after 5 minutes of running and I can get light dizziness often.

Double Beats? Advice
Echocardiogram
was fine. Don’t smoke and gave up the booze once diagnosed. Normally my BP is 95/60 with resting pulse rate of 50 to 60. Initially AF occurred every 3 days or so and lasted from a few mins to 15 hrs. I use relaxation and entrainment techniques to restore NSR.

Health Anxiety Symptoms
Turns out the DRs think it’s health related anxiety, after blood work
echocardiogram
and stress test. My question, can anxiety manifest itself into numbing/tingling, and pressure along the top back and front of my head and tingling/numbing in my face and Down my neck?

Recent Hospital appointment for PFT
I have seen quite a few people posting recently about being worried when having to go to the hospital for appointments. I have recently been for an Echo Cardiogram and also a PFT. On both occasions, the hospital was a lot quieter than usual. Everyone was observing social distancing and wearing masks.

Has anyone experienced intermittent atrial tachycardia? Comes and goes every few minutes for the last six weeks.
I had an ECG,
echocardiogram
and 24hour heart monitor placed on me during this appointment. The sonographer said the echo suggested I was back in atrial flutter and the cardiologist said this was the most likely cause of my arrythmia.

Echocardiogram tomorrow
I have an
echocardiogram
booked for tomorrow, will this test provide details of my EF? The reason I ask is that in order to re-apply for my HGV licence I must have an EF of 40% or more. How soon after the test & where would I access my EF reading please.

Bisoprolo but still symptoms
The tests for an
Echocardiogram
, ECG and a week tape did not catch anything expect my HR tends to go fairly quickly(100+) when stood up especially in the morning. I was intrigued to find out if anyone else knows or has experienced sitting down episodes of pre-syncopy/light headed for no reason?

Liver function tests
I am now down for
echocardiogram
, reviewing my other arteries and existing stents (full metal jacket of 4 stents), possible angiogram, stress test, plus full review of meds I am on. Doctor has reviewed the letter but has a few questions before my meds are changed.

Advice needed
Trans-thoracic ECHO cardiogram revealed normal dimensions of TH LV with preserved LVEF (superior to 55%) preserved right heart dimensions Is this good? only just told a 24 hour cardiac holter is to be sent from my neurologist appointment I had in March (obviously delayed due to pandemic). Had forgotten

On to the next phase of the MIN-102 trial
Due to a congested hospital schedule I had to go back the next day for the MRI scan and I have the
echocardiogram
this week. So I am now onto the next phase, which is almost identical to the first phase except everyone is on the drug.
