Afib medication
just spoken to a heart consultant first appointment. He has took me of bisporpol as heart rate still to high 180 bpm especially when I’m a sleep while in AFib. but I mentioned when I go back into normal sinus rhythm my pulse crashes to 30 beats per minute which makes me poorly in a way that I’m nearly

Hiccups update.
A little while ago I posted seeking advice on my having developed hiccups after upping my dose of B1 to 2ml jabs twice a week. The hiccups morphed into violent convulsions after a while. As I pointed out, the traditional treatment for hiccups is incompatible with Levadopa. The less effective alternates

Folic acid and b12
Hi all, I’m new here. I have low B12 (390 -180-900), but have been tested for pernicious anaemia and the test came back clear. I have low folic acid (3.4 -3.00-17.00) and was perscribed folic acid 5mg. I just read that taking folic acid when low in b12 can cause neurological symptoms. I was tested

Slow Heart Rate
Does anyone else get episodes when their heart rate goes very low? I’m in AF the whole time and the only medication I’m on is propranolol. Since being AF my heart rate has increased but not massively and I tend to be around 80bpm. As far as I can tell my heart rate never goes above 100 unless with

Heart Rate Monitors
This may be a silly question but I'm a little confused. Whenever I see a doctor I'm often asked if I have a heart rate monitor and a blood pressure machine that can deal with AF. My BP machine can't detect AF but seems to be accurate otherwise when compared to readings at my GP. When it comes to heart

PSA moving way too fast .
My prostate was removed 2002 at which time my PSA went to -0 . Five years later it came back and since than it kept on going up very slow till 2020 when I had COVID-19 which almost killed me . As soo as I started feeling better my PSA went from 12 to 25 in a very short time . I do check it every six

liver biopsy- what does it mean.
Oncologist doctor ordered the biopsy last year but never really explained it. He only said that the cancer was caused by the prostate cancer. Which was a good sign. Immunohistochemical stains demonstrate tumor cells are positive for NKX3.1, PSA, TTF-1 and focally for CK20, while negative for CK7

Confused about cancer
Hi everyone M partner was diagnosed with primary hcc cancer in liver ( as well as cirrhosis ). They are saying that he can have ablation on the lesion or possibly resection but first they need to speak to the surgeon who is at another hosital as they dont do resection at the Norfolk and Norwich hospital

Coming home
So after 4.5 years in Nigeria and an APS diagnosis in summer 2020 I’m coming back to the U.K. In many ways I’m looking forward to it and I know my consultants - all 3 of them - will be much more comfortable with me being near better medical care (APS, warfarin and epilepsy are not a good combination

1st question re cardioversion
Hello everyone - I'm 68 and have had AF for about 2 years. Apart from a brief conversation re cardioversion and ablation when I was 1st diagnosed, none of the cardiologists I have seen have suggested that I should have cardioversion. I am currently taking 10mg of Bisoprolol a day in two 5mg tablets,

Do you know the difference between a sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and a heart attack?
Would you be able to tell the difference between a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) and a Heart Attack? If so, would you know what to do? A sudden cardiac arrest is often misunderstood to be the same as a heart attack.
They are not the same.
They are both an emergency situation. To learn more

Worried
I am now extremely worried about having had a ct scan with contrast. I knew nothing about the contrast as I was just feeling very ill at the time. I am now petrified that this is going to cause me all sorts of problems with my hypothyroidism. I've not been feeling great with various issues going on with
