Having the same problem of my heart jumping around
Had a 5-day event recorder, and an
echocardiogram
, they suggested Increase my Bisoprolol from 2.5 mg to 5 mg and my nicorandil from 20mg twice a day to 30. Tried it and it knocked me for six, felt so ill on the second day. Could not do anything.

Feeling rubbish after ablation
I’m due to have a 7 day heart monitor fitted tomorrow, along with a ecg, chest X-ray and
echocardiogram
. I just need some (lot) of reassurance. All through this journey, unbeknown to me I have been suffering anxiety and panic attacks. GP’s been pretty uninterested!

Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Acid Reflux, and AFIB
My Cardiologist performed an
echocardiogram
and stress test. Both came out good. I thought maybe it was a one time thing suffering a panic attack, but the fear was always there. A month later I suffered another panic attack. This time it wasn't as intense as the first one, but still frighten me.

Unstabel angina
I was discharged later on that day after having been seen by a cardiologist who has since arranged for me to return to the hospital this month, initially for an
echocardiogram
and then later on an angiogram. My attack of unstable angina first occurred when I was resting at home.

Aortic regurgitation
A recent
echocardiogram
shows I have mild aortic regurgitation. I have a slow heart rate and shortness of breath and my heart is slightly enlarged. Will I need any treatment?

Sudden Swelling of Legs and Feet
Has anyone else experienced sudden swelling of their feet and legs? All of a sudden out of the blue it started happening. Was referred to a cardiologist and had an echo cardiogram where everything came out as expected. I initially declined any meds after a bad experience with a neurologist who was prescribing

Amiodarone
(A previous
Echocardiogram
gave an indication of this but he wants to do an MRI while I am in NSR to get a better picture). I’ve been on bisoprolol since being diagnosed in August 17. My question and concern is the side effects of Amiodarone which I have read about.

OHS vs TAVI
My cardiologist has decided that my aortic stenosis needs to be operated on, I have had all tests - carotid artery,
echocardiogram
, angiogram, etc - and have passed! My appointment is with a surgeon in 2 weeks at Glasgow Jubilee Hospital.

Post-ablation progress
Analysis of a recent 7-day holter recording shows that my ectopic rate is now down at 1.7%, so I saw my cardiologist yesterday for an
echocardiogram
. He gave me that good news that my ejection fraction was now 47% (up from 25%), which seems to give evidence to support the original theory.

Palpitations
I’ve had normal
echocardiogram
& ekgs but something as simple as washing dishes gives me palpitations. Could this just be anxiety and stress or something more serious. No chest pain or arm pain just fluttering and what feels like pauses in my heartbeat. Any advice helps.

Telephone call from the cardiologist.
So I guess they had the medical meeting to discuss the results from my
Echocardiogram
. He explained that all the other tests showed blood flowing ok.

Mitral Valve Problem
Two years ago I was diagnosed with " prolapse of the posterior leaflet with a moderate jet of mitral regurgitation" Prior to a shoulder operation recently I was given another
echocardiogram
as the doctor was concerned when he listened through his stethoscope.

Just diagnosed
My asthma Consultant referred me for an
echocardiogram
and I’ve been diagnosed as follows “Globally mildly impaired left valve systolic function ” mildly being the best word! I got the diagnosis the day I was leaving UK for 5 weeks so haven’t had the opportunity to discuss with GP even.
