Checking pulse daily hugely beneficial
When my GP diagnosed AFib I was given Bisopropol 😔 swiftly changed to Nebivolol and Apixaban and for weeks I just felt rotten most of the time. I then subscribed to technology which gave me unlimited reports on what my heart was up to at any time of the day or night. Reports were consistently showing

Dronederone
Hi all Two months ago I was prescribed 400mg Dronederone twice daily to slow down the frequency of AF episodes and also their duration. These were coupled with 5mg Bisoprolol and my usual Apixiban. Sunday evening at 7pm an episode started and as I write Tuesday 11am still ongoing. So it would seem this

I’m in the exact situation as you are. You say all the things I have going through my head .
I had a lupus anticoagulant test same as you and they space it out as You said every 3 months . I have had a huge clot in my subclavian which was so big it had spread from subclavian to side of my breast and under my arm pit . I was in hospital for a week . They put me on heparin IV drip and Coumadin

Coping with what could have been
My husband has recently been very ill and had a liver transplant which is working wonderfully. I can't stop thinking about what could have happened if he had not had the transplant. He had sepsis in March and almost died and was going downhill fast just before his transplant. I'm driving myself crazy

Systemic sclerosis and vein
Good day, everyone. I'm curious whether anyone with scleroderma or systemic sclerosis has trouble opening veins for IV drugs?, And if anyone has established a cvp line for IV medications?

PVC’s or ectopic beats
Hi, I was diagnosed with paroxysmal afib at 43 in 2017 and had catheter ablation in March this year. Afib returned for a couple of hours twice but was in the 3 month blanking period so was ok. Stopped the flecainide and verapamil 2 months after procedure as advised by surgeon and need to say it feels

Different AF Types
I have noticed that I get two types of AF periods. One is where my heart goes into an irregular beat but stays within the normal pulse rate. The other is where it jumps to around 160bpm and is irregular. Is there a difference in the two and how long can you leave the high heart rate before thinking

4 month old with VSD
I found out just over a week ago that my baby girl, who is a twin born in March 2021, has a large VSD - and now requires heart surgery for it. I know that I should feel better that I keep reading that it’s a routine procedure etc etc but I cannot help but feel dread, worry, anxiousness to name but

New Anticoagulant looks promising
There's a new anticoagulant that's in trials on people with AF. It appears to cause minimal bleeding. This is an extract from a Times article: Blood clot treatment may help reduce hospital deaths Tom Whipple, Science Editor Tuesday July 20 2021, 12.01am, The Times Blood clots are responsible for one

Valve replacement
I was 29 when I had my first heart surgery. Never knew I had a problem prior to that. I was terrified. I subsequently had mitral & aortic valves replaced aged 36. I had mechanical valves put in which was 25 years ago. Still going strong and was a complete life changer. Wait till you are on the other

LIOTHYRONINE SODIUM (Generic) by Sigma Pharm (T3) contains Mannitol - What?
Hi all, I've started using T3 and I got the 5mcg pills from Sigma Pharm. I've just looked up what's in them and found that they contain mannitol. So I've googled mannitol and not found anything that goes to explaining why it should be in my T3 pills. I'm a bit freaked out at some of the uses listed
