Feeling Deflated
Started Couch to 5k again and I have been struggling this time, but I've kept going I've repeated Wk 1 a few times. Now I'm really enjoying it but I'm in so much pain after it with my knee. I'm taking pain killers using deep heat gel and also tried a tens machine but my knee still hurts. Are there any

Sinus arrhythmia found but is this really what I am feeling?
Hello, this may seem like an odd question, but please allow me to explain. For a couple of years now, since my hashimoto's (thyroid disease) diagnosis, I have been complaining of feeling palpitations or missed beats, skipped beats etc. I have had numerous ecg's and been in the ER on a couple of occasions

Lifelong chest aches & pains?
Hi, I'm at 14months post heart bypass and have had, given the difficulties accessing post-op rehab due to Covid, a pretty good recovery. Working hard on my fitness and my diet etc. However, I still get a considerable amount of chest discomfort. Aches, pains, numbness and tightness. Nothing overly serious

Advice, please. My left knee has been niggling for a couple of weeks and I have tried Deep Heat and a neoprene leg support for when I'm not active. Can any of you recommend a support to wear whilst I'm running? There are lots out there, but I'm like a child in a sweet shop and can't decide. It's on the

Struggling with ectopics and enlarged left ventricle
Hello, I am new to this group. I am feeling very nervous and worried as I have been struggling for sometime with ectopic beats, now been told my left ventricle is enlarged as is my heart. Hoping medication will improve things, otherwise I will be placed on the heart transplant list. I am 48 and had surgery

Can’t believe it
I had a silent heart attack last Wednesday and an angioplasty Saturday, at home now resting but it doesn’t feel like I had an attack and can’t believe it. The angioplasty seems like a bad dream. Bit uncomfortable and slight pain but surreal feeling anyone else feel or felt like this

Measuring pain
This is a question is for all the ladies who have had a heart bypass. I am frequently asked how painful the procedure was. Well I had my first child over 50 years ago ( not by Caesarian ) and if I could compare I would say child birth was by far the most painful. It is something still in my mind now

Apixaban and Long Covid
Have just seen a report on BBC News about a trial being done to use Apixaban or Atorvastatin in the treatment of Long Covid (which can lead to death in 12% of patients who were admitted to hospital with Long Covid and then discharged) see this link for full details https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news

How many here like us had needed heart surgery postponed in last 12 months? Still waiting? Hoping for it to be in this next COVID lull?
Still concerned that some Trusts, NHS generally not attending to non-COVID life threatening, time critical surgeries as they should be.

Chest Pains.
I keep getting chest pains but had X-rays for my chest and it is all normal. They keep saying it is muscular pain but I have taken everything they give me and nothing seems to work.

Rate control strategy
Does anyone just take a fast acting metoprolol or Diltiazam when they go into AFIB, vs. taking a slow release 24 hour dose every single day. It almost seems my AFIB comes on easier when my heart rate and blood pressure is in the low range. Thanks!

Has anyone had kidney problems after heart surgery ?
I underwent surgery for a leaky mitral heart valve in September and unfortunately suffered renal failure which meant I was on dialysis, until my kidneys recovered. Has anyone else had the same experience ?
