Experiences with

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)

My HCG numbers were good, and so my doctor just told me to test HCG again this coming Friday, three weeks after the transfer, and that I would have the first scan one week after that. I don't want to waste so much time googling random things.

I've spent the best part of the day at my local hospital today. I saw my GP as I'd been experiencing increasing shortness of breath over the last week or so and as I had pericarditis last summer I think they wanted to be sure it wasnt anything similar. So I got sent to the one stop shop aka SDEC, same

Hey warriors 💜 My hormones almost 9 days post 5 days embryo transfer were: estrogen:198 , progesterone: 22,5 Hcg :17,4 They want to repeat the test on monday do i have any hope 😔

Hi I've been having palpitations and rapid heart rate on waking up for 3 months now. I'm sure it's down to medication but GP not convinced. I have had Anxiety but it happens without Anxiety too. I've had numerous ecgs chest x-ray and I'm currently waiting for 48 hour ECG I just wish I knew what was going

I was just told at my after Lab. and ECG appointments that I need to set up an appointment with a cardiologist because my oncologist wants to monitor more carefully my ECG's. I guess the numbers they are worrying about are QTCcB= 460. I have no clue about what this means, but I guess not great. I can

So I had a follow up appointment about my latest blood results… vitamin D was at 174 and ferritin at 43.5 ug/L (20.0 - 130.0) My GP was not concerned about my vitamin D level and said resume at whatever I am taking as it’s not a toxic level 🤷🏻‍♀️ The ferritin level however he agreed is in range but

After 2 BFNs (March and May) I had a slightly different outcome this month with a very low HCG followed by gradual bleeding and confirmed chemical. As my husband has azoospermia, this is the furthest we've ever been to pregnancy so it has been tough.

Hello, I'm 48, didn't think I'd be writing on here so soon but it's good to read your stories & experiences, albeit overwhelming at times. Started with palpitations and some noticeable breathlessness. ECG diagnosed bundle branch block. The stress from that prognosis ended me up in A&E from being told

Well, I feel pretty good about my EP appt. today. He was really succinct about a plan, goals, and end game. So he has proposed in ascending order, four medications to try. He is starting with the mildest and going to the strongest. He is recommending to start with Bisoprolol, then Verapamil, then Sotolol

Last week, my HCG was doubling in less than 48 hours. There was more than 150% increase in two days. But a week later, it took nearly 3 days to double.

Did you scan and test Hcg levels at 8 weeks? Thank you for listening!!

We had the ambulance Friday night stabbing chest pains, went into hospital all the tests ecg, blood tests no heart attack. They think angina sent home with aspirin and throat spray.

Suffered 4 cardiac arrests placed into an induced coma and transported to a Heart Institute where l had OHS. I have since had AF , heart burn

I am reasonably new to this site and have found it incredibly useful and informative. However, I recently received a bombshell, in that I have possibly been misdiagnosed with AF. I visited my GP at the end of September in 2023 with severe palpitations and given three ECGs. Two of these were viewed by

Hi everyone. I posted on this forum a few years ago and everyone was so helpful. I wonder if anyone could offer some advice/reassurance? Quick back sorry. I had an SVT around 2.5 years ago and ended up in hospital. Had all tests and nothing wrong. Was put on 1.25mg Bisoprolol which made me horribly

Had my second ablation for atrial flutter back in September , first ablation was in 2016 for afib, that ablation worked for almost seven years. Have been having these weird extra beats, I felt them and they showed up on my Kardia . After some internet research, people told me they are pacs. For awhile

I had a stent fitted to an LAD about two weeks ago. This was not because of an heart attack. In November 2022 I was referred to the Chest Pain Clinic at High Wycombe because of chest pains. My bloods were fine, ECG was okay but on having an echocardiogram I was diagnosed with severe Mitral Valve regurgitation

Diagnosed with possible subclinical hypothyroidism and put on 25 levothyroxine (Also struggling with meno and have exciting CFS/ME, FM, hypermobility, IBS) After 12 week raised it 50 levothyroxine, that was last Wednesday & I feel like shit! Saw the GP the week before (about falling over) & my blood

hi, Please can I have some advice. I’ve been taking 10 mcg T3 for 7 months together with 75 mcg T4. I haven’t felt particularly any better on T3 except for an improvement in tiredness and mood. I’ve felt hyped up and breathless on exertion so I asked for an ECG. I’m 68 and they found that I have a
