Treating PVCS on a virtual ward
I have posted on here a number of times about the burden of persistent PVCs. Anyway, after 5 days of feeling very dizzy and nauseous, I went to see my GP. She sent me straight to my local hospital which is a big teaching hospital. I was seen in the Same Day Emergency Medicine unit who were thorough and

advice after surgery/ any advice on natural remedies or how to slow the regrowth of endo?
I had my surgery on Wednesday to investigate my bladder pain. Turns out my bladder is clear but I had a chocolate cyst inside my ovary, and my ovary was stuck to my pelvic wall. I had a different surgeon from before, who indicated that my surgery wasn’t performed properly last time. So I am unsure if

Since I have metastatic PC they tell me that I will be on ADT for life. I am considering surgical orchiectomy since there are fewer metabolic

Heart rates in Afib and NSR
When I was on Sotalol for paroxysmal Afib my heart rate was typically in the range 70 to 125 when in Afib and 60 to 75 in NSR, as measured on my Kardia. For the last month I have been on Flecainide and Verapamil. There now seems to little difference between Afib and NSR heart rates both being in the

Do TENS machines help with endo pain?
Hi, I’ve been diagnosed with stage 4 Endrometriosis and have terrible symptoms before and during my periods. I’m trying different products to manage my pain, I wondered if anyone has used TENS machines? If yes, do they actually help with pain? Many thanks in advance!

I don't know what to do!!
Here is my situation. I have Atrial Tachycardia/SVT. I had a 14 day Holter that showed a 20% average burden of Supra ventricular Ectopy. I had an 11% burden of SVT. I had, on average, 20-30,000 ectopic beats every day, and 6-700 runs of SVT per day. Most of my episodes occur at night. From 10pm

Finally got some information on the treatment for FND
Here are some steps on finding treatment without the run around. Step one find out what treatment you need done ex. fMRI (Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Second call your insurance and make sure it's covered. Also look up the medical ICD or CPT codes prior to calling the insurance, because they

AF and Heart Parameters
I experienced AF first in 2012. It was recorded in Holter Monitoring. On medication since then. Holter Monitoring done once in a year. No episode recorded. Actually my episodes occur suddenly last for few seconds. ECG sometimes show tachycardia, Echocardiography is normal, TMT recent time is negative

Hi, I wasn't sure if this should be posted in a Diabetes forum or on here, after thinking about it I think that this BHF site is the better option. So Peripheral Arterial Disease.

2 months post ablation and frequent extrasystoles.
So I'm 2 months from my 1st ablation and supposed to now stop taking Flecainide but I seem to be permanently having extrasystoles, having hardly had them at all previously. They are fairly asymptomatic with me only sometimes feeling palpitations. I've also had a couple of Afib episodes but it's the sudden
