AV Nodal Re-Entrant Tachycardia
After seeing my EP today and giving him an EKG print-out of my tachycardia episode in the ER on October 2nd, I got some bad news. It seems my SVT wasn't caused by too much cortisone in my system prescribed by my GP, but that I have AV Nodal Re-Entrant Tachycardia. He said of the 1,000 or more ablations

Atrial flutter
I developed tachycardia and was diagnosed with atrial flutter in December last year. This was 5 days after my Covid 19 booster jab, and I had never been aware of any heart problems before. I presented myself at A and E with a heart rate of 150 without any other symptoms. After spending all night and

Exercise induced AF - a few months on
Afternoon all, Thought I'd share my experiences of navigating my way through PAF so far. My history is in a previous post - 4 experiences of high HR / AF during big efforts over the last 12 months, but seemed to be getting more frequent. No issues reverting to NSR. Cardiologist driven testing - I've

Should I stay on spravato? (Ketamine)
I've done
ECT
, TMS, been on 20 meds. I really wanted it to work. I have had periods of relief, but otherwise the emotional/depressive pain and suicidal ideation has been unbearable. I even called the suicide hotline. That's why I started it.

Post ablation 2 weeks
Ablation 2 weeks ago at NNUH and by the app FibriCheck I have monitored AF since. Heart rate up to 119 just sitting still and pre ablation was 65-75. My GP took an ECG today and agreed I’m in AF but will refer me back to the hospital as my follow up appointment isn't booked until January. They said I

A letter has finally arrived! Trigeminy?!
Well, the ECG was on the 8/9 & the letter was dictated on the 30/9. It was then typed on the 5/10 & has arrived today. Ventricular bigeminy but the letter says trigeminy too?! Which appears to be an electrical issue with my heart? One consultant is more concerned with the electrical side of cardiology

I lost hope and can’t do this anymore
I just want a good night sleep I just want to feel okay I’m tired of worrying so much like the doctors missed something not even a heart attack I’m now worried that I have an aortic dissection because of such weird pains I get in my chest back stomach being able to lay there and feel my heart beat in

Awaiting diagnosis of Heart Failure
My husband had a Mitral and Tricuspid Valve repair in June 2020, however his AF could not be treated as it had been happening for too long (they discovered the valve problems because AF was found on an ECG some 18 months prior to the operation). He has been struggling with his breathing for some months

Feeling Really down
Sorry, but a lot of members here will know that this is not me to moan. I've been in hospital with pneumonia, high heart rate and covid. It all started at the beginning of September when I awoke one morning with a soreness in my heart. I thought this is it I'm having a heart attack, dialled 999 and paramedics
