paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
I have posted re my paroxysmal AF with episodes very fast heart rate requiring treatment in hospital, but am now concerned about ever getting the Ablation I am waiting for. Have just found a letter August, which says “we’ll consider ablation if another very fast heart rate episode occurs”. Well so

Amiodarone and AF
I had cardioversion in August at Bart’s to restore sinus rhythm after being in persistent AF for 6 months. Been on amiodarone and pleased to report not a single flutter since. Had transformed my life. Cardiologist wants to reduce my dose and later change me to another drug. Does anyone have experience

PD sucks
PD suspected by GP in November 2022. Confirmed by neurologist in January 2023. Tried different meds - now on rotigotine patches plus after research, I now take mucuna morning and afternoon. Supposed to provide 240mg L-Dopa each day. It helps with constipation. What bothers me most is poor

Supraventricular Ectopies
I’m looking for reassurance, my friends. I am plagued by many palpitations these days, which my Kardia says are mostly SVEs, with a bit of Afib thrown in - unless of course Kardia is incorrect and they are all Afib ! I see a cardiologist annually and actually, because I complained of these palpitations

PMR Heavy Legs / Lead Legs / Low Energy
Hello, I haven't posted in a long time. I've read many articles. I didn't know what DSNS was until I went to the FAQ's and then tapering plans page. Both PMRpro and DorsetLady, and others have tapering plans (thank you PMRpro & DorsetLady). I have bounced around 15 to 5 MG for the past year. I'm currently

How high must the PSA levels be before cancer can be seen in a CT scan?
Following the end of my treatment (radiation, lupron, Zytiga, prednisone) with curative intent back in May, my PSA has risen from undetectable to 0.09. As discussed on another thread this is not alarming at this stage since I still have a prostate as I never had surgery to remove it. However I am

I have hashimoto's and I have been seeing a functional medicine doctor because my endocrinologist was not helping. He recently ran a bunch of labs. Both my creatinine and LDH were lab low. Does anyone know what that would mean and if is connected with my thyroid in any way?

Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
I caught a bad cold (tested negative for COVID) in November 2022 and on the day that started, I went into AFib. I wasn’t given any treatment because I was already on Warfarin due to my aortic valve replacement in March 2015. I finally saw a consultant about the AFib in May 2023 and was put on Isosorbide
