3 years post successful PVI RF Ablation
Had my three year check up, ECG, Holter monitor, PM diagnostic, echo and full bloods.All good. No AFIB since ablation. BP good. PM has many years left. Only meds 15mg zarelto and 40mg micardis. Still have not got back to as much energy as I would like, maybe just getting old.

May is Vasculitis Awarenes Month
May - Day 6 #vasculitis awareness month. Granulomatosis of Polyangiitis or GPA (former Wegener's) is the most common of the ANCA associated vasculitisdes, but still a rare disease. Maddie is a vasculitis warrior, take a moment to read her story. To donate to #VasculitisUK ‘s campaign this month to

Four days ago, I reported that after 4 ‘failed’ ablations, I had undergone a ‘successful’ cardioversion for what my EP said was atrial tachycardia. For four days, I enjoyed normal sinus rhythm and a heart rate of between 50 and 70bpm. However, my joy was short lived. This evening, whilst watching a

High Cholesterol
Any advice please on my lipid results taken from a finger prick sample when attending an appointment at Our Future Health research programme. They were elevated . Total cholesterol 7.6 mmol/L HDL 1.22 mmol/AL Triglycerides 4.72 mmol/L They did not record LDL unfortunately. It was non-fasting.

Watching House
I am off on a long weekend (tomorrow I go back to work), and watching House on Netflix. Funny how they focus on positive ANA for lupus on this. Of course it is never lupus, but the irony is, when you don’t tests positive on ANA - it can’t be lupus. BUT, if people test positive for ANA, you are told

Ventricular ectopic runs
Just been to the GP over the palpitations I've been having for a year or so and he said they are (from the way I described them to him) "ventricular ectopic runs" and I'm wondering what this community has to say about them...? They do feel ectopic as I get a 'missed' beat followed by a bigger one and

May - Vasculitis awareness month
May - Day 3 #vasculitis awareness month. Granulomatosis of Polyangiitis or GPA (former Wegener's) is an ANCA assosiated vasculitis and can be severe, even fatal if not treated early and correctly. Nothing is more empowering than #patient stories. This is Emma's story. To donate to #VasculitisUK

Flecainide (again)
Very interesting post by FraserB earlier. My problem is the opposite. Cardiologist raised my dose to 100mg x2 per day after being on 50mg x2 per day for a year and a half. After the third dose of the 100mg 2 hours before bed I felt terrible. The 2nd dose in morning I felt good with no reaction. Was worried

Eliquis and AF symptoms
Hi all, I've been following the posts on this forum and have received helpful feedback re blood thinners and AF. I was recently diagnosed with AF and was put on Eliquis, which I've not yet started because of what I heard about the side effects. I have bradycardia and experience flutters and lightheadedness

Hello all, I have just received the above thyroid test results and would appreciate some advice. I am feeling a bit underactive and wondered if I should increase my levothyroxine slightly? Thanks in advance

Bedranol
I have been prescribed Bedranol ( propranolol hydrochloride) for my anxiety. Just to use as and when I feel anxious . Has anyone else used this beta blocker ? I suffer from IBS - D and I’m worried it might cause diarrhoea. This would defeat the object of taking it completely!

Peginterferon and platelets
I started taking peginterferon 45 mg in November 2023 with a platelet count of 860. Since then, my bloods have been checked monthly, and my dose gradually increased. On Monday I will start 180 mg, alternating the dose weekly with 135 mg for a month, as my platelet count is now 665 and my Haematologist

Decipher this cholesterol reading please
I know there are plenty of knowledgeable people reading these posts so can you decipher this please Chol 3.5 mmol/L, LDL , HDL 1.78 mmol/L,Chol:HDL ratio , Tri 0.51 mmol/L. I don’t understand this. I’m guessing my cholesterol reading is 3.5, but what are HDL and LDL readings individually?

Post Cardioversion advice
After 4 ‘failed’ ablations, I yesterday had a cardioversion for atrial tachycardia. I went back into NSR after only one shock on the lowest setting and my EP was pleased with how the procedure went. Does anyone have any advice about how I can try to stay in sinus? I know it’s a bit of a lottery but

Donepezil as an aid for PSP
Hi all you good people, A couple of weeks ago a fellow traveller here wrote about her husband with PSP that as his cognition and swallowing declined, his Doctor prescribed Donepezil. Originally, he was on 10 mg of Donepezil which improved his swallowing, alertness and cognition. Two years later when
