Today I had my 1st palpatation post operation. I use to get them alot pre-op but that's expected. Today the palpatation was strong

anyone heard of long p wave
had my pacemaker in on Friday. Still in hospital with New med trial is bisoprolol, flecainide, amlodipine, xarelto. They say the flecainide is causing long p wave- I was taken off of flecainide in 2019 , but I thought it was for long qt wave. On this regiment of meds, no more spiking of heart

HGV license after valve replacement?
Hi all, So a year and a half ago I had valve replacement surgery where I had a mechanical valve fitted. Im on a couple of different meds like warfarin and some beta blockers. But I'm back to 100% now and I'm looking at getting my HGV license as I'm pretty young and it's something I've always wanted

Extreme fatigue 2 years after valve replacement
Three years ago I had atrial valve replacement and double bypass.Two years ago, following infective endocarditis, I had the replacement valve changed and a patch in my heart. And a pacemaker fitted. I have been well since but in the last month I have started to get breathless (not too bad) and extreme

I don't quite understand?
So what is being "Policed" here is natural progression? Surely it is quite natural to progress a subject as it tumbles around an educated group and when it runs out of steam, someone else will bring the group back on track with another "CLEAN" post! That is how a democracy works - well at least I and

TAVI pre and post experience?
I have severe aortic valve stenosis (bicuspid valve) but am asymptomatic. I am terrified of the idea of open heart surgery, or any other treatment for that matter, but considering having a Transcatheter aortic valve implementation . I would be interested to hear about experiences of pre and post implementation

Sudden increase in resting Heart Rate?
Bit puzzled by this, wondering if anyone had any clever ideas? I've tried to ring the local arrhythmia nurses but not got through yet, emailed them yesterday but no reply so far. I'm on 1x1.25mg biso and 1x50 flec twice daily which appears to have been working Ok.
Saturday I did a local park run

Flecainide: Worse AFib attack ever after being prescribed at a+e admission
Hi all hope everyone is well. Wish I was. Two days ago I was diagnosed with angina in ACU and prescribed yet more medication.

Tips for supporting my Dad after heart bypass
Hi all, My Dad is having a triple heart bypass next week so I wanted to ask if there’s anything that anyone found particularly useful/ helpful whilst in hospital and for recovery. Also anything I can do to support my mum too would be wonderful. I’m planning on staying with my mum the week he is

Exercise after heart surgery and cardiac rehabilitation
Today it is 2 years since my AVR at Harefield Hospital…. It was done during Covid so no visitors whilst I was in hospital and afterwards there was very little in the way of Cardiac Rehabilitation so I went searching online and was so thankful I found Angela Hartley. She is behind “Healthy Hearties” and

Bisoprolol and arrhy
hi I am on 2.5mg daily of Bisoprolol. My question is does Bisoprolol reduce episodes of arrhythmia or does it just reduce heart rate? I have paroxysmal AF and GP has recommended increasing the dose to 5mg daily but I am reluctant as I am a runner and my resting heart rate is 45-55 BPM, sometimes lower
