30yo - Myocarditis - Weird Heart Symptoms - Looking for help!
Hi all, This is quite an essay but I would be super appreciative if anyone can help/shed some light on what I could possibly be asking my doctors to do for me on this matter as I’m very scared of day to day life right now, and I feel like I’m not really being helped as much as I could be. I’ve had

Update on my Endometriosis!
I don’t mean painful periods, never had one in my life, I mean chronic unrelenting pain, passing blood clots from kidney, bowel obstructions
ect
… Anyway, I have had 6 tubes of blood taken from me! I look like a cancer patient! I went to die at 35 because my estrogen levels topped out!

Asthma Medicines that don't Aggravate RLS
Hi, All. I posted earlier that I was experiencing shortness of breath and chest-tightness that--together with an EKG and various other in-office tests performed by my GP physician--suggested a heart murmur. Following the later review of the results of a thoracic ultrasound performed at a local hospital

Verapamil v bisoprolol
I was diagnosed with paroxysmal AF about 15 months ago, given 10mg of Bisoprolol together with Rivaroxaban and statins. I hate the bisoprolol, and through discussion with GP, I have reduced it, but it still gives me a 'foggy' head and, I think, has contributed to weight gain. Having recently seen an

Another twist for those of you following along
Quick history. Previous electrophysiologist had suggested flecainide + beta blocker and/or consider ablation earlier this year. Experienced lots of episodes September and October and a short episode of what was deemed possible VT end of November. Had Stress echo, positive for inducible ischemia.

worried about hubbys chest pains
my husband has been having mild chest pains for months now and hasn’t told me until recently while we were visiting our daughter in Canada. The thing is this, while we were there we were helping her convert her basement into 3 separate rooms so hubby was putting up partition walls which is heavy work

Update on my previous post
I spoke with consultant and he recommends I have an ecg at my local gp and because its very hard to detect my palpitations on a holter monitor he suggested trying to monitor it on a reliable heart rate app I found the most reliable one called (Fibricheck) has anyone else used this? And was it able to

Update from post yesterday if people read.
I’d like to say thank you to the people who responded about how I was feeling and my symptoms. So I got checked by a doctor, like just standard stuff like bp, pulse ox and the heart sound thing aha, he said you look perfectly fine and that I haven’t had a heart attack as he’s seen many and especially
