I was sat on the couch and started feeling hot and a bit of a fluttering sensation in my chest and a bit dizzy. This ecg reading came back unclassified and whilst it was recording it said my heart rate was 164bpm yet the pdf says 72bpm 🤷🏻‍♀️ I have just bought a book to try and teach myself on a

Experimenting on myself, don't all try this at home
This is long but I wanted to share this in the hope this inspires someone, some may think I'm crazy but I just had to find out. I have HOCM, its quite mild and has been so for years. It's hereditary. Im in my 50's . Was sort of bullied by cardiologists to take Beta blockers and have been on a low dose

feeling weird after every meal
Hi . I am 5 years into GCA and am down to 5 mgs Prednisolone. I was on 4.5 mgs until a week ago when l realised l couldn’t cope with the fatigue, lower back pain ( stenosis) and weak heavy legs any more so l went back up to 5mgs. I have felt a lot better but something very strange and scary has started

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!

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
