Experiences with

Heart block

I recently wore a heart monitor for one week and they detected an episode of complete heart block lasting a few seconds. I believe I was sitting down while it occured and did not feel faint or have any other symptoms. I think I may have coughed for no reason when it occured.

My daughter was diagnosed with heart block when she was a year old. I've found it really hard that so little information is available about heart block in children, and there is no specific group for affected families in the UK.

I have pauses of around 77seconds And my heart rate drops to around 35 bpm when I sleep relax. A normal daytime around 50 70 . I have a loop device in and they don't seem worried but everytime I feel dizzy and check my heart rate to see it low I panic. I know they wouldn't leave me if it was dangerous

I had a few weeks ago ECG which showed that I have 1st degree heart block. Also, last year I was diagnosed with mild heart disease. My question is shall I make an appointment with cardiologist because of the heart block?

Hello, I’m 30 and have recently been told I have a first degree heart block. A holter has seen my heart rate drop to 30. I’m worried as I don’t feel the doctors are taking it seriously enough and are being really dismissive. I’m very active but now I’m scared to run at all.

Over a month ago ( 10 months post HA) the cardiologist noted a first degree heart block on my ecg ( nothing worrying) so reduced my bisoprolol from 2.5 to 1.25 ( which I've been taking for 4 weeks).

ECG was performed in GP surgery straight away and the doctor said it was heart block . He has since spoke to the cardiologist at the hospital suggested stopping all tablets , supplements, BP tablets reduced to min dosage. Blood tests for thyroid next week.

I tripped this afternoon and fell on my hand and hit my cheekbone on the pavement. I came to A & E and they are checking me with a CT scan because the apixaban. Has anyone here fell and hit their face? Obviously I am worried and didn't expect this. I nearly didn't come as I got up straight away and felt

a couple of months ago I switched from Edoxaban to Apixaban but night mares have caught up with me again. Is Rivaroxaban likely to be a better option? Last two nights I've woken from stressy dreams with tachycardia ... which soon calms down with deep breathing etc. I'd be very grateful for any

I've been on PAF for 5 yrs and drink 24 small bottles of beer- Corona Extra per wk. I TAKE METOPROLOL which apparently reduces my heart rate and I take Aratax.I get pains etc.... You don't die because you got AF. All i hear is fear and fear and fear about AF. What do you members say NOW!!!!

Hopefully this will be a less contentious post than my previous….. 😬 I have been practicing meditation for a year and now make it a daily habit. It has really helped with managing stress and to break the cycle of ‘anxiety can trigger SVT, but I have anxiety because I worry about SVT’ etc Along with
