Ectopic Beats ruining my life
So I’ve always suffered with anxiety all my life, last year I was going through a lot of stress with work and in December I got stranded in Germany due to bad snow. I was having panic attacks with heart palpitations over Christmas then on Boxing Day I had sat down and I felt this weird thud/flutter in

Slow irregular heartbeat?
Was diagnosed with arrhythmia last autumn, currently on edoxaban, flecanide and bisoprolol. About 20 hours ago my heart started beating irregularly, it is still slow (about 50 bpm) and seems to be missing a beat every 3/4 beats. NHS111 yesterday advised going to A&E where they did ECG and blood

Concern over heart issues affecting the brain, thought patterns, concentration etc.
After suffering from sheer exhaustion tiredness for over a year, the hospital picked up Bigeminy during an ECG in spring last year - when reviewing chest pain after choking on food. Finally saw Cardiology for 1st time in Nov when a follow up ECG showed bigemniy and frequent VE's. Heart ultra-sound

Mitral Valve Leak
I saw a cardiology registrar today about the symptoms of my mild to moderate mitral valve leak which has only started during the last five months. He’s given me isosorbide mononitrate and arranged a 24 hour ecg. Does anyone know if this will be effective? I feel it’s just masking the symptoms. This

Smartwatch ecg
Hi there everyone. I was diagnosed with mild LVSD after chemotherapy treatment and have been on bisoprolol and ramipril for a few years. I've recently discovered my watch can do ecg's , but my results do not look like my husbands and all the other 'normal' ecgs online. They have large waves. I will

aortic valve surgery
morning all, I have had open heart surgery 8 weeks ago to replace my aortic valve. I have a mechanical valve now which I can hear ticking/thudding. Few days ago I could notice , while lying down, a few skipped heartbeats, naturally I got a little worried and also panicked which made the matter worse

24 hour ECG
Was set up with a Lifecard CF this morning for a 24 hour ECG. Just noticed it saying error battery low! No chance of getting hold of anyone now so wondered if anyone knows whether I should try and change the battery or leave it? Is it still recording? Or is this a waste of my time and I’ll have to

A question.
I went for an ECG today which is basically a yearly check re taking Dronedarone. Unfortunately, I was asked to lie down in a totally flat position which leaves me feeling nauseous. I mentioned this to my wife who quite automatically said "Why don't they take your ECG when you are upright"? Which when

Coming off meds - any advice?
Hoping you are all having a good day. I’ve just had the news that my three month post ablation ambulatory ECG has given good results - ‘very reassuring’ and ‘no sign of AF’. So far, so good. I was told that I can stop Flecainide today and Bisoprolol after a further two months. I’d welcome your comments

My Home ECG reading? AF or Ectopics
As you may know from my recent posts Ive been having aweful time past 5 days with ectopics and palpitations. Ive been recording them and the photo attached is the typical of what Im having every minute of the day. I think overnight I went into sinus rhythm - I found a 2mg of Diazepam from years ago

Whatever happened to the pill in the pocket?
I have had paroxysmal AF for 10 years. When it happens I never know what to do, especially as I live alone. If it goes on for more than about 12 hours I seek help from 111, they send the paramedics who do an ECG and confirm the problem, but by the time I get to A&E it stops! I have asked for advice on

Waiting CTCA and echo
I saw my GP in Nov 21 because of left sided short lived chest pain- I thought It might be GI related as I have a hiatus hernia. He suggested referral to cardiology. Finally seen by cardiology early March 23 ( 60+ weeks after referral). I was seen in A and E in March 22 with an episode of dizziness,
