So fed up
I had an ecg, blood tests, chest xray, ct scan & an ultrasound on my stomach, after initial worries everything seems fine apart from 1 dr wanting me to have an
echocardiogram
& 24 hour monitor just as a precaution. . I feel so miserable & so horrible.

beta blocker. Coming off them
I have also had two
echocardiogram
over the last 2 years and they were perfectly fine EKGs are fine too Is there truly a safe way to come off it? I wish I never agreed to it. However, I was scared because of the tachycardia event I had that put me in the emergency room at the time.

Hi everyone, I had an
echocardiogram
a few weeks ago and I had a letter through the week saying that it was completely normal! I’m so pleased and relieved, as the cardiologist heard a heart murmur but turns out it’s just because I am slim.

Echcardio report finally.....after 3 months wait!
Some of my AF friends on here may recall I had an
echocardiogram
way back on 14th August, as i was getting a bit SOB on stairs and slopes. I finally got the report on this Friday, 24th NOVEMBER....I almost can't believe I have had to wait THAT long.

No diagnosis - still in hospital on my 34 th day!
However,I was symptomless , and the
echocardiogram
came back heart structures and EF okay. So on to an angiogram with stents ready, but all the pipes were clear too, so pointing to a possible non ischaemic event.

Ongoing Pericarditis
I was told they would expedite an outpatient
Echocardiogram
. Which was then rejected by outpatients a week later! Luckily I have Beneden Health who agreed to a private
echocardiogram
and I saw a consultant mid November.

Problem with sitting & lying down
I spoke to cardiologist today (have appointment with EP but not until end of January) and he is arranging for an
echocardiogram
and a holter monitor but thinks it is probably just my heart settling after the ablation. I wondered if anyone else has experienced something similar?

Good News…..
I eventually had an
echocardiogram
and have been waiting for the results. Meanwhile I discovered that around August the 1st , I had been on 5-7.5 mg bisoprolol in July, I was increased to 10-12.5 mg in prep for a surgery. The pharmacy or surgery increased my tablets to 5mg instead of 2.5mg.

He had an
echocardiogram
(this year) in January 2023. We didn't find out the result until November. The ejection fraction had gone up to 31%. In February 2023 the heart failure nurse put him on entresto half dose. Within a month he was put on full dose of entresto.

AF and alcohol.
I’ve recently had a 24 hour heart monitor and an
echocardiogram
and am now waiting for an appointment to see a cardiologist. My question is, is it safe for me to have a sensible drink of alcohol?

Post Ablation Hypertension
Soon, an
echocardiogram
showed diastolic dysfunction and pulmonary artery hypertension. My BP has continued to climb and has been unresponsive to Bystolic 30 mg, Cozaar (losartan) 50 mg, and Inspra (eplerenone) 25 mg.

Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation and Pancreatic
I have had the
echocardiogram
and no issues with heart, but had 4 more episodes of atrial fibrillation rhythms. All returned on their own to sinus rhythm. just looking for some advice as the cardiologist doesn’t seem over concerned. Is the pancreatic linked to the atrial fibrillation.

The continuing saga of the purple toe
Surprise, surprise, after having a MRI scan of my legs, an
echocardiogram
, an ECG and a twenty four hour heart monitor, no trace of blockages except what the consultant called a 'pinch' in a leg artery, suspected of causing a blood clot and the purple toe.

procedures after an echocardiogram
A couple of ecgs and blood tests later I was told they looked fine and all ok but was sent for an
echocardiogram
, I have since had a letter to visit the cardiologist at the end of November. Is this a normal thing or is it something to be concerned about.

Atrial fibrillation in early 50s for no obvious reason
ECG came back satisfactory as did the
echocardiogram
but they did find a mild leak on my tricuspid valve. Has anyone else afib for no obvious reason in their 50s and leaky valves?

Mitral valve (moderate)regurgitation and AF.
I was diagnosed as moderate MVR but arrythmia clinic said that as I was in AFIB at the time of the
echocardiogram
, this may improve after Cardioversion when back in NSR.
