Can your HR be over 200 without you noticing?
Simply that. I bought a new Fitbit Charge 6 last week to try and eradicate the weird 'peaks' and inaccurate HR readings of my old Luxe. I've had a week of cheerful accuracy, until today. 209bpm, sitting quietly at my desk?? And 52bpm either side seems odd, it's not that low during sleep... I didn't feel

24 hour monitor
My paroxysmal AF was not picked up on a 24 hour monitor. I was checked a couple of times over a 5 year timespan and told that I just had lots of ectopics. Finally, when it became more severe the GP eventually relented and booked me in for a seven day monitor whcich picked up the atrial fibrillation

past my sell by date part 3
I sort of struck lucky with a new gp who ordered a raft of tests “Sort of” because whereas I couldn’t understand some results I have been booked in for a US urinary tract because neither antibiotics or pessaries helped. Despite already taking amlodipine for bp my latest reading is 150/75. An ECG was

Myocarditis - new here
Hello, I’m glad I’ve found this chat as I feel pretty isolated with this new condition. My story sounds like some I’ve read on here: I spent a week in hospital 7 weeks ago following a very painful episode of heartburn - which turned out to be my stomach but a blood test revealed high troponins. Since

Is this something that needs investigating/Or Thoughts on cause?
Im 46 F. Mild on/off non bothering pain for 2 year's. If it was a serious problem, would it have got worse by now as it hasnt and just comes and goes since then? It's more the not knowing the cause, than the pain that bothers me. It started in the left breast and armpit. (I've put the breast pain down

Sylvia Plath and B12?
Has anyone else pondered on the links here? Although I can find all sorts of discussion about her early stresses, repeated losses and struggle with depression, even chemical imbalances, possible bipolar, not a jot can I find about the B12 deficiency which she would have had at least at one point, even

incredibly lucky
I feel so incredibly lucky after reading some of your stories. I had a HA 5 yrs ago, was told that if someone has to have a HA they would want one like yours? It was explained to me that it was on the right side and very low down?? I stayed overnight in hospital and the first time I saw a consultant

Stopping Sotolol after ablation - fast HR and breathless
Hello, I am an ablation for Paroxysmal AFib and Flutter on 11th July. All went well. As well as AFib I used to get long periods ( a week or more) of other arrhythmia -PACs, SVTs, PVCs. They told me the ablation might not help stop these. During the 3 month blanking period, had some days of chest

About anxiety
The number of times I've been told all my symptoms are from anxiety you wouldn't believe. Problem is when they take my oxygen levels or do an ECG they always come back normal.

Why is this so hard, someone to talk to
Hi everyone. I had treatment resistant depression for my entire adult life, I've been on pretty much every med, hospitalized, ECT tms and ketamine. Nothings helped. I've gone the DBT and cbt route. I've been suicidal. Can anyone out there relate? I'm married with a 13 year old which makes it harder.

cardioversion
Hi everyone I had my cardioversion today and it was successful. Thank you everyone for your support and you were all right it wasn’t as bad as I had imagined. When the consultant came to see me before discharge he was a bit perturbed! He said I was shocked three times and didn’t convert straight away
