Severe Dilated Cardiomyopathy with heart failure - and now AF - anyone else out there like me?
I have severe dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure but had been doing well despite the inner chaos. I played tennis 5 times a week, kicked a football with my children, took long walks, and was able to run up the stairs to my flat. After the metapneumovirus triggered AF 6 weeks ago I stopped being

Why I stopped metoprolol
Quick summary: I’ve had one ablation, for A-fib, August 2022. All was well A-flutter began in August 2023. I’ve had five cardioversions since then, lasting from three weeks to three days. I am now in A-flutter awaiting an ablation on February 6. Success rate statistically is around 95%. Fingers crossed

I've Dodged the Big Bullet, Again!
I am in my very comfortable home on a lake, hopefully getting better from the recent really scary diagnosis of acute
liver
failure
. Even I was worried.

I don't know what to do!!
Here is my situation. I have Atrial Tachycardia/SVT. I had a 14 day Holter that showed a 20% average burden of Supra ventricular Ectopy. I had an 11% burden of SVT. I had, on average, 20-30,000 ectopic beats every day, and 6-700 runs of SVT per day. Most of my episodes occur at night. From 10pm

Update
Hi, my partner is still in hospital with what we were told was
liver
failure
/decomp Cirrhosis. They seem to think its now Alcoholic Hepatitis as his last US scan doesn't really suggest Cirrhosis and he has no ascites. He is still yellow and is having a colonoscopy today.

Imnusupressants Post Transplant
Hello,Im wondering how this whole suppressed immune system works? My husband and I have got covid (6 weeks post TP for him). The whole household has pretty much had it all at the same time, but how will hubbys recovery differ? Is he less likely to recover as quick, more prone to secondary infection

Endoscopy surprise
I was seriously ill with a deep rooted infection which had tipped my
liver
into acute on chronic
liver
failure
. They diagnosed cirrhosis and advised me to change my lifestyle or I wouldn’t be around much longer…and very nearly didn’t make it through on that occasion.

Tacrolimus vs cyclosporin
Hi, I am currently working with my rheumatologist to plan for second pregnancy. My daughter is 3.5 years old and I was on tacrolimus during my pregnancy (I usually take MMF). I remained relatively well and stable throughout but there were alot of issues with maintaining the tacrolimus concentration

Good News!!!
My dr. approved the buprenorphine for me. I am thinking positive that it will work. She is giving me the patch. I am excited. I have to discontinue the horizant though which surprised me and of course discontinue the oxycodone. Hopefully now you won't have to listen to me complaining and I will

itching
I had a transplant 18 months ago and 6 days ago the hospital reduced my Tacrolimus and increased my Prednisolone to improve my kidney function (although it was no worse than it has been since the transplant). I’m gradually increasing the Tac and decreasing the Prednisolone but today lve started itching

Understanding my GP's message
I am in permanent AF and taking Edoxaban, Bisoporol and Ramipril. Recently, at my GP's request I wore a 24 hour ECG monitor. Looking at the GP's referral for that on the NHS app it seems she suspected heart failure. Have just had a message from the GP which said ' 24hr ECG reported that the rhythm

Dr. Joel Wallach
Is there anybody who has heard of the teachings of Dr. Joel Wallach who says that AF is not caused by a condition of the heart but instead because the Vagus Nerve is being "pinched", either along the spine or at the head where it enters the skull. As you may know, the Vagus Nerve goes down the length
