A thought for our loved ones.
My triple bypass heart surgery was recently cancelled at the last minute. Although disappointed I was OK about it. My wife however was very upset by the cancellation. She had built herself up for me to have the operation so emotionally it was a big come down. It got me thinking. When facing major surgery

Pain threshold?
Am I being a wimp & just need to man up? I really don’t know how I’m meant to feel or if the level of aches & pain I’m experiencing is ‘normal’ or as expected - can anyone tell me how they feel and deal with this ? I’m struggling in the mornings with stiff legs, lower back pain getting out of bed. Then

Help needed interpreting a Kardia report
The odd “quivering” heart sensation which I have now had for about 6 days continues every night. When I awoke this morning I took a Kardia reading whilst it was taking place and sent it off to Kardia for analysis. The finding is reproduced below. The bradycardia is known to my GP and cardiologist and

Chest Pain
Hi, my mum has recently been admitted to hospital with chest pain and shortness of breath, they thought she may be having a heart attack but having further test her arteries are all clear and they have put it down to either stress or her fibromyalgia saying this can cause chest pain, is this a common

Quietly seething and whittering!
Hello all Seeking voices of reason here...! History behind title; I had a phone appt with one of the arrthymia nurses 16/20/20 during which we discussed at length how I was. I told her that I had seen Proff Osman privately as couldn't get to to see him/ phone appt for 8 weeks and I was increasingly concerned

Scientists discover how COVID-19 virus causes multiple organ failure in mice.
UCLA researchers are the first to create a version of COVID-19 in mice that shows how the disease damages organs other than the lungs. Using their model, the scientists discovered that the SARS-CoV-2 virus can shut down energy production in cells of the heart, kidneys, spleen and other organs. "This

Delayed heart surgery trauma?
Hello, I'm new here! I had open heart surgery at 10 years old (I'm now 21) and had my sternum wires removed 3 years ago. Recently I have been having really bad health anxiety - worrying about my general health and death/dying. I cannot comprehend the fact that I ever had heart surgery and the thought

I've been on Metoprolol for about three years now (low dose, half a pill morning and night). Can I wean off of it? If so, how?
I have had Afib, once recently that I was able to reset holding my breath. I'm not on a blood thinner. I'd like to see if it can be managed without the meds. I'm 66 and otherwise healthy. I had a some high blood pressure but cut almost all salt out and got that under control. I'd like to use supplements

Exercise
How soon after valve replacement can I start riding my bike again? It’s an electric bike if that makes a difference.

Yes I will have the vaccination
Re Vaccination If I had seen the video of a heart bypass before my op I honestly doubt if I could have got through . I therefore preferred to put my head in the sand and let them get on with it. It will be the same with this vaccination. I would rather that than dying slowly of something I knew I could

AF?
Hi all, hope you can help me. I have been having problems with my heart for over 6 years now. Mostly Racing and ectopic beats. I have had many ECGs and had 24 hour monitor and one for 5 days. All they picked up was one episode of SVT which they did not seem bothered about. I am on a beta blocker but

What should we expect 12 weeks after aortic and mitral valve replacement? - UPDATE
HUGE thanks to all who respondend - brilliant advice, which our GP agreed with, referred him to the hospital's acute medical unit (not the hospital where he had the op). They were brilliantly thorough and after a long day there we ruled out infective endocarditis and neurological issues, confirmed that
