Hypo and palpitations
Has anyone had palpitations with hypothyroid? Was diagnosed hypo in early Jan and palpitations started late Jan. They've been off and on since then. Have weeks where they happen frequently then weeks when they completely go. Since Thursday they've been almost constant. It's not a racing heart beat, more

Newport Marathon Race Report and Huge HURRUMPH!
Warning: there are medical issues towards the end of this post! Started training for this at the beginning of the year. Since I was already running HMs, that was plenty of time. However, due to a mixture of icy weather, colds and a ski trip, I didn't follow the plan too closely. Also, Strava’s fitness

Unstable Angina - Male 53 years old
On Easter Sunday I attended church with my wife and about midway through mass I started to get a tight sensation in the middle of my chest. At first I thought it was just a bit of nasty heartburn and waited for it to pass, but the pain got worse and started to feel like something was being forced into

Hmmmm...
So while I was waiting for my echocardiogram I developed severe pain in my chest and back, which when I told the technician about, resulted in me being rushed down to triage to be checked out. Spent several hours in emergency getting blood tests, ecg and chest xrays ... and waiting waiting waiting.

New diagnosis
Christmas Eve saw me admitted to a&e with a severe migraine (something I have suffered with since a teenager). I had all the normal ones done as well as an ECG. The ECG picked up an abnormal heart rate for someone of my age and the doctor send a letter to my GP asking to refer me for an echocardiogram

Made life style changes such as eating healthy foods, reduced alcohol and lost weight. Fast forward to Nov 21, two days after having the 3rd Covid Jab, had a mild heart attack (NSTEMI

Kardia Readings - feels like Bingo!
I was given a Kardia device to take my own ECG readings just over a week ago to see if I could capture any of the episodes. Since starting this, I’ve recorded a number of different things as follows: - wide QRS complex x 3 - atrial fibrillation x 18 - PVCs (premature ventricular contractions) x 4

Bisporolol
After seeing the cardiology consultant for reoccurring palpitations he has said he's going to prescribe me a low dose of bisporolol but has not said what for. Over the last few months I've had several EKG all coming bk normal and a three day tape as well as even recorder all results coming bk normal.

Short episode five months after ablation.
Do hope everyone is having a good day and has been able to enjoy this beautiful weather. I have PAF and had my first ablation 5 months ago. All was fine through recovery, some discomfort, some ectopics and loads of tiredness. Two and a half weeks ago the report was good in my post ablation consultation
