Just to add I was referred to a consultant in September, had a 3day monitor and an
electrocardiogram
then a copy of the medical report to the GP (full of jargon) but have had no contact with a consultant and no reply to my queries so am pretty much in the dark as to the way forward.

Slow pulse
Hi Folks, I've just been for my second part of the heart stress test as the consultant wanted to know if I could take flecainide whilst I wait for my appointment to get another ablation. The resting test was last week but today I was told (after the canula had gone in) that my pulse was too low.

I hope this will help some of you
I have had GAD for years, my main symptoms being dizziness, feeling faint and head pressure all the time. I’ve been on antidepressants for over 20 years but I still get hospital appointments for blood tests, MRI, X-rays, ECG’s etc. as I never feel well. About 18 months ago I started having palpitations

Missed heartbeat found in neck pulse only
Hi. I'm a 44 year old man and have recently been feeling jumps in my heartbeat around once a minute. It is strange because i only feel this when checkingmy pulse in my neck. A brief ECG at the doc showed nothing but there is definitely something there and is causing a noticeable thump lower down each

Heart Palpitations since age 9.
I have had heart palpitations since age 9. Episodes of skipped beats and rapid heart beats on occasion that last from 5 minutes to 1 hour. Had all the tests: EKG, holter, Echo. I am 70 years old and the bottom line is that I am in extremely good shape(as per the cardiologist). No other symptoms. These

Update
I diagnosed with Flutter end of June 22 after a couple of trips to A&E. prescribed Edoxaban 30mg with Bisosporol 2.5 daily reduced to 1.25 mg daily as I already have low BP. Episodes of possible Flutter are happening at least once a week. I do have etopics apparently and one ECG showed narrow tachycardia

Unusual AF episode
I went out to post a letter this afternoon and was out for about 15 minutes. On my return I experienced what I thought were ectopics with some very mild chest discomfort. I took a 1lead Kardia to check and was surprised to see the "Atrial Fibrillation" indication with a heart rate of 93bpm. The AF

weird Kardia ecg
went into af just before midnight, but was dozing on and off and thought it would be gone by morning. Well it hasn’t, so I have just used my single lead Kardia and the ecg shows like this! I have never had it like this, only erratic rate with pretty smooth bits in between, if that makes sense. I am

Palpitations and Covid , Betablocker Update
I just wanted to update my experiences from earlier this year-please see previous posts. I started with a virus-possibly Covid-then followed worrying palpitations/SOB/light headedness. Lat flow taken 10 days after the virus started showed negative, but could have been too late to be accurate. The virus

A and E Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh.
Woke up at 5 am Sunday morning with severe pain under right shoulder blade which remained all day despite maxing out on paracetamol. In the evening I dug out some codeine tablets I had for sciatica last year and added those with similarly little improvement. Monday was more of the same except by now
