Living with presumed myocarditis which turned out to be MI
Sorry for this long post. I couldn't think how to make it shorter. I've found it hugely helpful to read the posts on this forum so I thought I'd reach out to seek some support and wisdom. My husband was fit and active (we enjoyed leisure cycling 15-20 miles, walking, gardening etc) until Oct '21. A

worry over echo results
I am a 58 year old woman with a 3 generational history of dilated cardiomyopathy, including mother who had a heart transplant at 50 and am also a carrier of Becker muscular dystrophy, which carries an increased risk of DCM. I have an ECG and Echo every 3 years and when the results of the last echo came

TSH in normal range but...
Had some blood tests late December as a follow up from an ECG (no problems). In the little time I had with the GP I raised concerns about thyroid function (sister and brother both diagnosed hypo decades ago). I mentioned a number of symptoms. TSH (the only thyroid test done) came back at 3.1, no action

Left ventricular hypertrophy
Just been diagnosed with this following an ECG for shortness of breath and discovery of a heart murmur. Waiting for an appointment with a Cardiologist. Need some reassurance as to what I should and shouldn’t be doing. Take blood pressure tablets.

Concerned about my sons' futures after atherosclerosis diagnosis
H, I'm 58 I had mild chest pain or rather more discomfort a few times last year. Decided to take it to A&E last October. ECG, BP were fine, blood test showed high Cholesterol. Slightly elevated troponin. (10) Second blood test an hour or so later showed no rise in troponin. (9) Sent away with something

get your body checked
I had anxiety for 18 years and had all the symptoms you could talk about on here. I been with this group 3 years. And a lot of people helped me but. The best Insurance is a cardiologist I passed every stress test X-ray ecg And ultrasound. I finally got a hart catheter and they had one artery of a branch

Worried about blood test
Hi all, I'm panicking a little and hoping you can put my mind at rest. I've felt wiped out and jittery for a few weeks, supposed to climbing Kilimanjaro in 3 weeks so thought I should get checked up, failed to see GP so got a private appointment which showed high blood pressure so they did an ECG

Pins and needles feeling
It all started on Tuesday. I had a bloated feeling and thought it was trapped wind? Took a Windeze and it seemed to help that feeling but then got a tingling in my face which was weird this then progressed to my shoulder's, arms and chest. It then seemed to ease and I just carried on. It was an effort

I feel let down by the medical professionals
I had a heart attack January 2020 triple bypass followed this. One phonecall from cardiology 3 months after it and an ECG in A&E last year nothing else. No one seems concerned about the pains in the chest neck and shoulder. The getting breathless just sitting there. The cognitive issues and the constant

Can you have multiple heart 'problem' types at the same time and what's the significance?
So far on my list over the last few years, I've had Atrial Fibrillation with rapid ventricular response, Sinus Bradycardia, Premature Atrial Contractions, (bigeminy, trigeminy) and Premature Ventricular Contraction, Right Bundle Branch Block and now it looks like potentially Atrioventricular nodal reentry
