Propranolol withdrawal
So about 4 months ago I was brought to Emergency Department with heart palpitations. First time in my life I have experience something like that and first time in my life I had high blood pressure and heard my heart bumping in my chest. At the time I also had a mild case of acid reflux and I explained

WPW questions
Hi all, i have so many questions about WPW. I'll ring the BHF helpline again at some point soon, but i often find its good to get others opinions. This is all new to me as i was only diagnosed late December. My WPW and delta waves etc are always visibile on the ECG, whenever i take it. 1) Can WPW cause

Private cardiac MOT 5 years on?
Hi everyone... I'm just coming up on 5 years since an 'out of the blue' heart attack and cardiac arrest. My annual CHD review is due, and I pretty much know what to expect - they'll weigh me, ask me about my exercise, check my bloods and ask me how I feel. No red flags from that I'll be on my way

Shoulder / neck
Hi, I had a stent fitted to my 99% blocked LAD in December 2023. The issue first came to light with left shoulder pain and discomfort, which I'm still experiencing. I'm booked in to see my GP on Friday morning and they're doing an ECG, which showed no abnormalities prior to my stent. Any advice please

Atrial Fibrillation on smart watch
I got a Samsung Galaxy 6 watch for Christmas that has ECG monitoring. It has found 3 times (2 of which was last night) atrial fibrillation which I've not been aware of before and never diagnosed with. Are the watches results reliable? I didn't feel much different really but could feel my heartbeat.

New to AF advice?
Hello everyone, I am new to AF, starting last Sunday. I have had an ECG and awaiting a consult with a cardiologist. I have been in AF since it started and on medication. Went from an average HR of 57 to 90, just like that, boggles my mind. I am a very active 52 year old with big retirement dreams

Blood thinners and diarrhoea
Hi, I've been on blood thinners since about 2012. I have had slowly increasing problems with morning diarrhoea since then. I was on apixaban but was changed to edoxaban for safety reasons on the advice of the GP's pharmacist. No change noted. I've been trying to track down the cause of my diarrhoea,

Post-Covid lung issues - what to expect?
Hi all, I had Covid in mid November and have been sick ever since, particularly (and perhaps only) breathlessness and fatigue. I was first diagnosed with asthma, but the meds only seemed to stave off a worse episode of breathlessness. So I went back to the docs and insisted on being seen, as I was

15 year AF story
First episode of AF about 15 years ago. Heart rate ~155. Would sometimes reset itself. Initially fixed with Flecanide, then Amiodorone. Flecanide then inadequate and I suffered a very unpleasant fainting/blackout reaction to amiodorone when an IV drip was started in A&E. So further episodes sorted by
