It was reported in October 23 but only today did i received a copy of the result sent to my GP. It shows short runs of atrial tachycardia and short runs of AF and I will

exercise after bypass surgery
had bypass a year ago and finally getting back to the gym - been taking it easy (possibly too easy) this last year as concerned that something may go “wrong” - but got to get back on with life - so does anyone can say that my heart/arteries are good as a normal heart and can push myself as much as I

Hi all, I got some private tests done (attached) and I have to say I’m surprised as they seem to point to me being hyperthyroid but have all the symptoms of hypo. Can someone explain to me please? Other tests done recently were: B12 - 240 - I have pernicious anaemia and am getting B12 injections off

can heart function improve ?
After my husbands stroke seven months ago he was diagnosed with stage 2 heart failure . I asked the arrhythmia nurse if there was a chance he could have another eco cardiogram to see if this had improved because how do we know how much exercise is safe etc if we don’t know this ? She just sort of stared

Waiting for bypass
Unable to stents lad put balloon stents in, on dual platelet therapy while waiting to get on bypass surgery list. Wait is making me very anxious. Managed to keep up moderate excersise. But don't understand why they want to see how I go on, surely it will only get worse.

Previous Heart attack/stent
2016 when my life changed. I look back now and see that my life in a wierd form changed for the better following my heart attack at the age of 55. Since having the stent placed I realised how restricted my body had been and the relief this procedure had given me. I attended rehabilitation classes for

Ablation Number Four
Further to my post a few days ago where I described my disappointment at slipping back into ‘Possible AF’ just 10 weeks after my third ablation, I have now seen my EP. He analysed the print out of an ECG and feels that I am now experiencing atrial tachycardia rather than af and that it is worth doing

Cardiac surgery
Has anyone on long term thyroid meds had open-heart cardiac repair surgery? Any ideas as to whether it affects thyroid and any need to up/ lower T4/T3 meds? Any reflections/suggestions would be most welcome.

Cardiac open heart surgery
Hi to all Has anyone with metastatic breast cancer had open heart cardiac surgery and might you share your experience with me please? I only saw my surgeon yesterday and am now scheduled for Monday. How amazing is that but I'm just a bit scared. It's one of those 'be careful what you wish for' situations

Mitral Valve repair
Hello, I write to connect to people who have had surgery taken the form of a mitral valve repair. I have been diagnosed with a severe mitral regurgitation with mitral valve prolapse, mild left ventricular systolic dysfunction (I think because the heart is working too hard because of the prolapse) as

Has anyone had severe breathlessness? I have had heart failure for over a year now, and I had a pacemaker fitted on 16th October last, then a change to my blood pressure tablet from Ramapril to Entresto. After a few weeks I became breathless, and developed atrial fibrillation again, so went back on to

vasospastic coronary arteries
Well after 3 years and one aortic aneurysm fixed as a bonus, a consultant at an and e last night said ‘ you had better be tested for vasospastic coronary arteries ( well he said Prinzvariant actually) .

Blood results
Hi all, Following on from the very useful help and advice I received on my previous posts, I have some blood results back and am hoping for some advice this time. My B12 came back in the normal range but low and my ferritin came back only just scraping into the normal range (results attached).

Heart Failure diagnosis.
I am an 80 year old female with a history of Atrial Fibrillation. I have had 3 Ablations and am now on rate control drugs which keep me quite comfortable. Recently my breathing became a problem and I am getting generalised weakness . I really do expect this at my grand age but I do like to drive and

Deleted post with link to AF outcomes
I just wrote a reply to a now deleted post that linked to an external site giving a review of AF and its long-term outcomes. It was from a company called "Medtronic", a maker of medical equipment and other materials. The web page it linked looked like it was a PowerPoint presentation aimed at health
