Ain’t that a kick in the teeth
Well, fellow travellers. I haven’t posted for a long while , but I have been lurking. Like many others, I tend to “forget” about the forum while I am too busy enjoying life and return when things are not so rosy. I am at loss to explain the purpose of this missive as it’s not particular uplifting nor

Well, It's always something new and fun
Hey All.... Well, I have PAF and had a echocardiogram the first time in some years (new cardiologist, etc). So...discovered I have mitral valve leakage (regurgitatuon). It's moderate at this point with a EF of 60%. Hope that some others may have experience with this "combo". What has your journey

Afib
I have been taking 5.mg of Apixaban twice a day for a year for Afib I have no energy whatsoever so tired all the time. Blurred vision aching legs. Can’t go on like this. Anybody else on Apixaban experience these systoms? My house is a mess can’t find the energy to do simple tidying up.

Doctors Appointment
Purely by chance I had also noticed that one of the
Health
functions of my smart watch, I.e my
heart
rate was showing that over the last few months my heart rate varied between 20 bpm -220 bpm which did make think that perhaps I should mention that at my checkup.

Angiogram and Right Cath.
On meeting with the Surgeon the discussion came around to my pulmonary hypertension and he said if that was ok, as I have no other
health
issues I should be able to have open
heart
, as I’m not keep on the clip, I already have a pacemaker and with open heart they can move my leads from going through

Does Heart Bypass Cock Up Heart Rate Monitors?
I have always had a HRM on my bike which senses heart rate from my chest band. However, since my bypass there is no signal being received. Is this a thing after heart surgery?!

Healthy Lifestyle choices can significantly boost your life span post CABG
Hello Lovely People, This is my first post and I don’t even know whether I am doing this correctly. I had a Heart Attack at the age of 33 and ended up having Quintuple Cardiac Bypass Surgery. I have had a lot of anxiety since then about quality life and my life span in general. Which, I am pretty sure

How do you feel when in AF?
I am 66 and got diagnosed with AF last November and am on anti coagulants and beta blockers. I have been relatively fine since then other than the odd ectopic and fluttering but just for a few seconds. Then three days ago in the early hours of the morning I woke up with a thump in my chest and my heart

Heart attack and mental health
Hi. I suffered a heart attack November 2021 at 44 years of age. The Dr's suspect I have FH due to my family history. I'm looking for people around the same age as myself who are in a similar situation. I feel that talking to other people will help me tremendously with my mental health.

Does anyone else with SLE have leaky heart valves?
Hello everyone, I got a scare on Wednesday when I went for a routine echocardiogram (prior to bunion surgery next week as I said I had a leaky heart valve which had never caused me any problems and was very minor when they first discovered it about 10 years ago. To be safe they said they'd better check

Heart failure question
Trying to learn . I don't have heart failure but know someone who has been told they are and have arrhythmia. What causes this? Could it be untreated thyroid would that be common?
