My life for the past several months which helps explain my silence I hope; this is a copy of a reply message I sent to Eastender:) Crazy!!
I'm having an
echocardiogram
of my heart Thursday morning. Yes, the can do this with a holter monitor on. This test will show if I have blockages, disease, valve problems. Etc. Which could explain some symptoms.

Doc prescribes Letaris
My
echocardiogram
showed (I believe) less water on the heart ... but the FNP looked and seemed to feel they needed a closer look because she was worried that my pressures were up. They have prescribed me on Letaris (ambrisentan) 5mg tabs 1 per day.

19 year old - Diagnosed with AF - confused from Doctors response.
I have had an
echocardiogram
and the results for that came back fine. I'd just like to know if anyone has or have heard about AF being induced through throwing up, as i can't find a great deal on the internet and my doctor just keeps telling me he has no idea what's happening.

ICD/CRT Pacer implant
It was advised by my EP cardiologist after an
echocardiogram
to check my heart after paroxysmal AF episodes. He thinks I'm at risk of heart failure. I will be having 3 leads fitted and at some point later, I'll have an ablation to, hopefully, prevent AF episodes.

Well
, not ideal after 5 days of walking and jetlag, however I did it, the gent performing it said I'd done very very well, got to level 5, 14.5-15 Mets, and around 14 minutes, so hopefully this points towards not having coronary artery disease or blockages causing my right bundle branch block, just the

ICD implant
She said that my EP had decided on this because of the rapid heart rate that showed up on the
echocardiogram
. She said that the implant will not help with preventing AF episodes and I will still have to stay on anti arrythmia medications, so, basically, nothing changes!

Urgent advice please
Regarding my breathlessness they could'nt decide whether this is heart problem related or a secondary Pulmonary embolism, so they have organised an
echocardiogram
to investigate for right ventricular strain?

Pacemaker
I went on Monday last for an
echocardiogram
and EP kept me in when he looked at the results then & there. I was in the throes of a prolonged & severe bout of AF, 72 hours unceasing, and he was very concerned about it. Upshot is, I'm going to have a pacemaker fitted next month.

Coming off Amiodarone
Husband had an
echocardiogram
and his heart was fine, no abnormalities. He'd previously been told he had heart failure with a stretched left ventricle. Anyway, the
echocardiogram
showed that his heart had recovered.

update from today
other problem of the right branch bundle block, this he thought was another potentially nothing matter, however due to this and also my af he wants to investigate to make sure there isnt a pathological reason for the block, so to his credit hes arranged me to have the 24 hour blood pressure monitos, an

Ablation or not?
After about 12 hours I was given bispropolol, and things gradually settled down, and I was discharged in the morning, with a letter telling me to make an urgent appointment with cardiology for an
echocardiogram
and 24hr monitor, and then a follow up with the cardiology.

Severe hypertension
I have just received a report from the Brompton Hospital stating that as well as severe COPD, I also have severe pulmonary hypertension on
echocardiogram
. Yet the PH Consultant does not plan any further treatment options because of my severe lung disease just review in 3 months?

Latest appointment
My cardiology appointment was postponed from last week to 1st May, so I guess my
echocardiogram
was ok after my SVT attck. I've decided that as nobody is worried about me I'll take my lead from them!

Amaurosis fugax
I have GCA and PMR. I had thought that all I needed to worry about is Prednisone. I described to one of my doctors a small eye incident. My eye exam was good. But he diagnosed Amauroses fugax, from my description of the incident: Early morning; one eye; very short in duration; sort of looking through
