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

AF and MAD
anyone else have AF and MAD (mitral annular disjunction) . It was picked up during cardiac MRI. The displacement is 5mm, mild mitral valve prolapse and regurgitation. Neither my cardiologist or EP have said anything about it apart from put me on another very long waiting list to see a more specialist

Dentists
Hi everyone-I am due to have CABG July/August. I have a routing check up at dentist this month. I have read somewhere of a link between teeth/gums and heart disease. What are the risks, if any? Is there any chance of dental treatment delaying the heart operation? Thanks

Puzzling symptoms while exercising beyond 20 minutes!
I had a single vessel
heart
bypass
2 years ago – this was successful and latest CTCA scan performed June 22 showing all is well. Exercise stress test completed last year and everything looks good too.

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) . From milk fairy’s and others brilliant posts that I have read at least I was aware of it. We are still

Portable air purifier for outdoor exercise with allergic asthma
It is the peak of spring allergy season here, as well as other great stuff like air pollution. So I just wanted to share the results of today's testing of my wearable air purifier for asthma. I am lucky to have wooded hills out of my door, so I do not have to scare people while walking there. The device

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

Heart Pain
I wonder if somebody can assist with a question. I'm a 46 year old with a minor mitral valve prolapse. Possible sinus nerve damage on the lower ventricle but minor. I'm not on medication. There is no known 'major' issue or treatment plan suggested by cardiologist. I am very fit with low heart beat. Have

Atrial tachycardia and PAC burden and urgency of ablation question
So I finally found the report from my 14 day holter monitor and it showed a PAC burden of 4% and 141 episodes of atrial tachycardia originating from the pulmonary vein and the longest stretch being 30 beats (I guess that is what the EP meant when he said i was having mini afib episodes, maybe he was

Post Ablation
Good morning, This is a long one so Thankyou if you get to the end! I had my 3rd Ablation last Thursday 18th Jan at St Bart’s . It was a fairly complex one and resulted in going from sedation to a general anesetic during procedure. I had an overnight stay and was discharged Friday afternoon. I was

Panic attacks and high anxiety 2 years after heart attack and quad heart bypass
So just over 2 years ago my dad suffered a
heart
attack followed by quad
bypass
surgery. Coming out his road to recovery started and he made some big changes. He’s of a decent weight with a good diet but packed in cigarettes and less trips to the local.

Updates on AF meds
Hello. Had appointment with AF specialist yesterday at Berks Cardiology. Everything went well. He explained everything in detail of my options, and basically said it's my choice to do whatever I wanted. I told him I wanted to exercise again at the gym, he said I could do whatever I wanted to do, but
