so after everything with my uncle, I’ve got my own ecg this week, as been getting flutters and pain in left side of chest. Already suffer from high blood pressure, only 32 so praying it’s clear and just panic. But also my family history both sides, with what uncle has gone through has scared me. Currently

"Probable Myocardial infarction of indeterminate age".
I've had afib for about a year and a half and it's reasonably well controlled, it seems, by bisoprolol and aPixaban. Consultant advised to leave it alone and will probably need a pacemaker in the future. He did an ECG on me yesterday and the words at the top of the print out were what I have shown at

New GP: here we go again: I refuse to feel frustrated
As per what I wrote a couple of days ago and the thyroid test results, she phoned me today to tell me that I am 'hyper' because the TSH is 0,01. Meantime any dummy can see that an fT4 of 13 (range 9 to 19) and fT3 of 4.7 (range 2.6 to 5.8) is in no way hyper! She admits to this being out of

Black and blue from electronic event recorder.
Since my ablation at Cleveland Clinic in early December, I'm to use a Model 1000 Cardiac Event Recorder that takes an electrocardiogram that I phone in to my EP once a week (or in the case of an event). I simply place it against my bare chest and press "event." Last time, the arrythmia nurse told me

Heart trouble, 32 years old.
Hi Folks, I'm 32 years old and have been going through an incredibly difficult time the last few months. It all started in September, wakening panicked, heart racing and feeling like I was going to pass out. This kick started months of torment, which with the help of therapy, I now believe was a panic

They Do Not Believe You. Get a Kardia!
So I had a video appointment recently with an ep. Unfortunately, some of my medical records did not arrive at his office on time, so he only had partial records. He had some ekg's that showed flutter, but he couldn't find one with afib. I explained to him that I have a 40-year history of afib progressing

MRI Cardiac Myocardial Viability
Hi, I posted last year about various problems I’ve been having and things haven’t yet improved. My angiogram was clear, my stress test was ok other than me being in bundle branch block for most of it (I felt ok).
