Incruse Elipta 55 advice ?
Hi all, I'm a Newbie here.I have Asthma and COPD. I'm back on my Relvar ( after a brief change to Trimbow) which made my breathing worse. I just got prescribed an additional inhaler yesterday ( Incruse Elipta) I took the one puff yesterday evening and within a couple of hrs I was having palpations.

Compression stockings
My husband has been wearing his compression stocks for 7 weeks now after having had a triple heart bypass.They are driving him mad now and he wants to stop wearing them. How long should they be worn for? Appreciate any advice, please.

where is the funding?
I ended up needing emergency open
heart
surgery
, both kidneys shut down, I lost peripheral vision in one eye, and I suffered a possible mild stroke. In the matter of a few hours my life changed. I experienced several losses, and learned that what I thought I knew professionally, I didn’t.

Have I Really Got Heart Insufficiency?
I detest the the Heart Failure as it does not truly describe the condition and needs changing but I doubt the professionals can be bothered. As many of you will know I have serious issues my right foot/lower leg (in fact my only foot). Spending most of my time in a wheelchair I tend to develop a fair

Interesting to know...
If you had the idea that AF is reserved for us, humans, you were wrong. It is kinda catching, lol, so our pets can also have AF problems. Here a passage from an article, talking about AF in cats and dogs and the interdependence of heart size and the probability to have AF (allegedly, larger hearts (sportsmen

Mitral Valve Regurgitation?
Hi all! After seeing a cardiologist yesterday for the 3 month post Ablation check up....(just over a year after the procedure,) I'm told that during that procedure they found that I have a leak in one of the valves in my heart which has caused a slight murmer. Now, nobody told me any of this at the

Advice regarding setting of expectations ahead of cardiology appointment would be appreciated.
AF since March 23. Currently only really experiencing breathlessness on inclines. No experience of HR over 100 (as far as I know). Devices confirm persistent AF since March. Echo revealed a few mild heart failure issues and recommended cardiology review, which is due in a couple of weeks. My question

AF no longer a problem?
My first episode of AF was in 2014. The ambulance crew came to my house and clearly recorded atrial fibrillation which was confirmed after I was taken to hospital. The Cardiologist/Electrophysiologist put me on Apixaban. I was discharged a year later from his care. A year later I had a short hospital

New and unexpected diagnosis of an atrial septal defect
As my cardiologist said ‘we only know the heart we have’ but if mine is working twice as hard as a “normal”
heart
then perhaps I would notice a big difference post
surgery

Regular alternate irregular heartbeats, .75 sec then 1 sec continuous- is this AF or some variation?
Noticed this morning when getting ready for a group bike ride, that I had an arrhythmia - I was slightly breathless as I rushed around getting my kit together. As always, a quick check of the pulse shows my pulse is fast and irregular. Whip out the 1 lead Kardia and first off it says possible AF @ HR

Robotic surgery?
My mitral valve is deteriorating and surgery is in my future. I’m 72, in good health besides aFib and my valve. I’m interested in robotic surgery and if I would qualify. Curious what other folks experience is.
