Hawthorn supplement helped
I have had paroxysmal AF for several years, but episodes were getting more frequent and lasting longer in the past year. I am a 53 yo female, slim build, never smoked, in good health otherwise. My mom had AF (tachycardia) for 40 yrs and my brother has V tach, so it's very much genetic. I saw the cardiologist

Recording AF with LBBB
I suffer from pAF and left bundle branch block. I would like to record an episode of AF on a personal ECG . I know many of you use Kardia but some reviews say it will not record AF if you have lbbb. I contacted Kardia and they confirmed it may record an af episode as unclassified. My Fitbit records

Aortic valve replacement
I had an A-type Aortic dissection in 2017 - emergency open heart surgery followed, with a replacement tissue aortic valve as well. I was told the valve would need replacing in 10 to 15 years. I'm 7 years in now, and my question is how will I know when the valve needs replacing? What symptoms will I

Wellue users and True Afib
I am using a 24 hour Wellue device. I am an ER Nurse and well versed in ECG readings. My Wellue is interpreting Atrial Fibrillation, but I am skeptical. I have frequent PACs, Atrial Tachycardia in 2-7 beat runs, and blocked PACs. Have any of you had this experience? Being educated in reading them, do

Cardiac surgery meds bring PSA down?
My PSA was 1.6 on January 8 of this year. On January 31st I had successful open-heart surgery to repair a heart valve. On March 7th, my next blood test, my PSA had dropped to .5. Has anyone here heard that this sort of drop after surgery is normal? Perhaps there are meds used at that time that could

Roller coasters and Cardiac condition
I really enjoy going to theme parks and going on a variety of roller coasters which include those that goes upside down. Now I have a cardiac condition- currently recovering from mitral valve open heart surgery where they were able to successfully fix my mitral valve, I don't want to lose my enthusiasm

Aortic Stenosis
Hello Everyone My Name is John. Hi to everyone. Soon I think I have to have a TAVI fitted for the Aorta, because of other health problems Cardiac Surgeon did not recommend open heart surgery. Only alternative is to go for the TAVI. I studied and practised a martial art called Ninjutsu until a back

ablation success?
I’m having a first ablation for SVT in mid-august. I’m wondering how soon I might have relief. My condition wavers between tachycardia and bradycardia. Symptoms are intolerable dizziness and inability to function. I’m in the USA (unfortunately) and we want to leave the country for a month between

Advice/Help
Hi all, I'm just looking for some advice please? I'm due to go in for a Laparoscopy next week, I've had heart surgery in the past but, I'm really nervous about this surgery due to complications in the previous surgeries. So I'm just trying to calm my nerves by being as prepared as much as possible.

Medical bracelet / necklace?
I'm likely to need warfarin for life after my upcoming heart surgery. I'm wondering if I should wear a medical bracelet or necklace once I start taking warfarin, so paramedics know I'm on a blood thinner if I'm ever in an accident. Do others wear such things? If so, how obvious does it need to be?

Today marks the first anniversary of my triple heart bypass. So grateful for the treatment I received and the support I have received from family and friends. My body has recovered really well and apart from a little discomfort when coughing or sneezing looking forward to the future. Feeling emotional

Unconfirmed ECG
To be clear, I'm also involved with the doctors on this! I had an ECG due to occasional palpitations and ectopic beats, which came back as 'normal sinus rhythm, possible septal infarct, QS in V1 V2, low QRS in voltage in precordial leads', unconfirmed interpretation. I made the mistake of Googling
