Palpitations in the night
I'm so scared, 64 year old female. The first time I had palpitations was around 30 years ago, went on for hours by the time the doctor arrived (back in the day of the home visits!) it had stopped he checked my heart with the stethescope and said all is fine just palpitations due to anxiety and nothing

Palpitations - help I'm scared
HiI went to the local A&E on Tuesday with a racing heart. The doctor I saw was lovely & eased any initial worries I had. They did an ECG & I was shocked when that came back normal as I didn't think it would. They told me to cut down my caffeine & try to relax at home taking deep breaths & plenty of water

My response to my endo...
Oh, why oh why do they want to make and keep us sick?? My endo did my yearly test - and she only ordered a TSH (I had done them privately, so I knew it would be low, and my FT4 was, too) - I expected her to at least test for FT4s, but she didn't - and here was her response: [i]TSH is low, showing your

Feel like a bit of a Fraud
I had an AF episode in mid January which lasted 5 hours but by the time I got to hospital everything was normal. Stayed overnight on a heart monitor - nothing, so discharged and told I would he sent a Kardiamobile app but shoukd continue living as normal. NHS then cancelled Kardiamobile and gave me

New to afib
Just been prescribed Bisoprolol for afib. my recent ecg indicated this along with 110bpm, but my heart rate is usually around 55-60 at rest. I put this down to nerves whilst in hospital. I have now had 3 days on the beta blocker and it has slowed my heart rate to low 40`s, but eratic heart beat persists

An update
Hello all, I hope you are all well. I haven't posted for a while, but I have had a few more tests, and I wanted to give all an update. I was booked for an exercise stress test, which was abandoned due to a very fast heart rate before starting. It was really strange because when they hooked me up

About me
Hi all. Just introducing myself as a new member. On 1st April this year, I started feeling like I was getting heart burn or indigestion. Didn't think much of it. Popped to the shop for a couple of things for my wife, who had pulled her back. When I got back, it felt much worse. I took her things upstairs

Should I be concerned about lower resting HR on bisoprolol?
I had my first recorded (though probably 3rd in 3 years) AF incident on Sunday and have got 1.25mg of bisoprolol and 5 mg x 2 pd of apixaban. I am a runner so my resting overnight HR is usually low, say mid 40s. My heart returned to its normal rhythm on Sunday night after about 19 hours in AF. So now

How to talk so my consultant will listen - advice please đ
Since my diagnosis, Iâve had ongoing cardiac symptoms but they seem to have grown in frequency since mid January. I have had a couple of reviews with my GP and the decision was taken to stop my dapagliflozin - fine. Additionally, my presyncope symptoms have been getting worse and itâs now been recommended

A request đ
Whenever I feel that life is tough, I remember a quote by someone anonymous, "Ups and downs in life makes it going. Even a straight line on an ECG means you are dead!" Fair enough. But being a Doctor I know that too many fluctuations in an ECG too, are life threatening. I've been quite vocal about
