Experiences with

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)

Hello all,I'm new here, 52 years old and currently under investigation for potential angina after some issues with chest pain on exertion. Had an appointment at the hospital a couple of weeks ago with an ecg and am having a ct angiogram in a couple of weeks. Had my ecg report come in the post today

hi all Had my first hospital assessment this afternoon but the Registrar said I wasn’t typical of Angina symptoms. ECG was ok but she’s sending me for an echocardiogram and ct scan to be sure. She did wonder if I had a lung problem due to being an ex smoker (only for 2 months) and having had radiotherapy

Well I made it to sunny France (actually very hot an humid) and have just managed to get my heart ultrasound results emailed through. To quote cardiologist’s report I have « very mild aortic and tricuspid regurgitation » and « Interatrial septum is aneurysmal that is bulging into right atrium, although

I wanted to understand is it normal to have some anxiety over heart health. I am 23 man, overweight, non smoker, from the UK, like my cholesterol, bp, ECG. stress test I've had have been fine. Despite the symptoms I get (chest tightness, arm pain and jaw pain) the doctor are not concerned and assume

Hi awesome people, This is an ECG taken on my iWatch on waking this morning - still laying flat in bed. I’m currently in yet [i]another[/i] Amiodarone-suppressed episode of PAF. Currently approx 36 hours. At least the Amio is keeping the heart rate lower, but I seem to be getting more episodes

hi all can you cast your eye over this please I know I’ve sent one recently but I’m weaning off of Bisoporol as an experiment and it’s been 48 hours without any . My normal rate while on bisop was circa 48bpm average

Latest info: When I saw my doctor, having experienced some worry about this test, he was immediately aware that the high BNP level was directly attributable to my permanent AF. He explained that he had only asked for the test to establish a 'base level' for my proBNP reading and despite the relatively

Hi I have just switched over from antiplatelet Clopidogrel to anticoagulant EDOXABAN following detection of AF on a LINQ ECG implant. My GP has asked me to get a blood test and is suggesting tests every 3 months. I thought a benefit of the drug was no need for blood tests. Anyone got experience to

In the UK we are advised by NHS 111 or our GP to head to the A&E department if our blood pressure spikes greater than 180/120 and there are one or more additional symptoms. This happened to me twice in the past 6 months (never happened before this in 20 years). The first time it hit around 250/120 and

First: thank you all for the kind support I have received since - Much appreciated. To the Nuclear Scan ordered by my GP for suspect spread from bladder cancer to the bones. I got a call from my GP surgery today telling me Dr wanted to let me know, NO bone cancer found. Thant's one worry gone.

Good evening. My name is Michael and I just joined looking for a place to find support for those struggling with anxiety and depression. Some of my first anxiety attacks were on my Birthright Israel trip in late May of 2011. I knew I was depressed since about the second half of 2008, having my first

On the day of the transfer, we did hCG flush. As said, everything looked great, and I felt great, but I still didn't get pregnant.

I have been very low profile of late because I had nearly two years free of AF - then it came back last Wednesday with a vengeance and refused to go away... This resulted in a trip to the doctor's and then A&E on Thursday because the rate was quite high, blipping up to 150+ bpm. To cut a long story

Hi All, I was diagnosed with A-Fib only a few weeks ago so everything is still very new and a bit bewildering. I think I was first aware that something wasn't right around 3 months ago when I noticed I got much more out of breath walking up a hill then I would normally be. A couple of days later I noticed

Does less of a dye stealer at this stage mean the HCG is dropping? I've read about the hook effect but apparently that's not likely to set in till much later (HCG on Wed at 18dpt was 7100...) I'm so terrified ive lost it already and there will be no heartbeat... 🫤

A couple of months ago I noticed I was getting out of breath when walking, not badly so but needing to breath more than the activity would normally warrant. Then a few weeks ago I noticed that with the breathlessness my chest also felt tight, although it actually felt like it was more around the diaphragm

Thanks to the person who recommended this, but I just need to let you all know that, after struggling for some time to make it work, I found it was not compatible with my Samsung phone, so I have had to send it back. So I would advise that anyone thinking of buying one should check compatibility first

Yesterday I had a CPET , in preparation for having the heart monitor leads attached they used a very coarse wipe to clean the areas where the stickers go to enable the best connection , it was like having sandpaper rubbed on my skin . Anyway my skin felt a bit sore where I had the stickers placed and

Update from my CPET yesterday , two really nice guys did my test , when they did the breathing tests before going on the treadmill they told me my airways were narrower, when I was attached to the heart monitor they were watching the ecg in silence for a few minutes which made me wonder if there was

can you give me a verdict on my ecg please Is it showing a flutter ? Thanks matt
