Back In AFib
Hi, I have been a member of this forum for years but not been for a while. I had a second ablation years ago and have had no AF at all until last night when I went into AF. I was able to see a doctor this morning who confirmed AF via an ECG, referred me to cardiology and put me back on Sotalol

My anxiety is getting to me!
So since my last post a couple of week ago I thought things were getting a bit better. My meds and therapy were getting on top of my anxiety and I thought the bisoprolol was keeping my heart in check whilst waiting for my CT Angiogram( 29th). I'd been discharged by my Private Cardio following a normal

Update to private cardiology consultation.
I am really pleased with today’s appointment. I gave him a list I had typed of all my questions and he went through them one by one. He was very happy with the Kardia ecg printouts and didn’t require an ecg there. We discussed many things Af and heart related. He also reviewed my cholesterol figures

good news, I’ve found my trigger, bad news I’ve triggered another episode!!
I’ve been kind of keeping a mental note of different foods I’m eating to see if I could find a trigger. Well, I’m 99% sure I’ve found it. My last episode was 2 weeks ago. I remember that the only thing id eaten out of the ordinary was a bag of midget gem sweets. The af episode was the longest to

Has anyone else seen the work of Professor Stephen Cunnane on the 'brain energy gap' and its implications for PD, Alzheimers and cognitive impairment? I've put a link to one of his talks below, but to summarise: - Cognitive impairment and brain health in PD, Alzheimers, is due in part to an 'brain

strange beats
I have had Afib since 2018 , in Jan 2019 I started sotolol and Xeralto after a successful cardio version, I have felt good no side effects except insomnia since I started on it . I think the sotolol causes the insomnia cause I did not have it before . I however think that’s better then a lot of other

POTS? Palpitations and Kardia interpretation
I have had palpitations off and on for years - dismissed as ectopics and not of any concern. Back in 2021, feeling pretty rubbish in the mornings particularly I found information on-line about POTS, which seemed to fit my current and historic symptoms. I monitored my BP and pulse from waking. These were

Anyone else had problems with changing appointments?
I have now calmed down so can write sensibly, has anyone else experienced problems when trying to re-arrange hospital appointments? I go annually for an ECG where they scan your chest area with the gel and it makes funny noises and I always where my eardefenders as it creeps me out. Usually get a letter
