Well I went back into AFib 9 days after CV. Tachycardia, breathless ,light headed. I phoned the Arrythmia nurses number & was told it is a shame it didn't work but to get my Gp to do an ECG & send it to email.They would look at it & go from there.Probably decide to do a 24 monitor & see me in clinic.Waiting

I had a rough time in the recovery period from my cryo ablation at the end of June last year, after a promising start. Then, since October last year I've had a lovely period without any major problems. Sure, I'm sensitive now to whatever my heart is doing, and when I lie down in bed I can feel my heart

Hello I am thinking of buying a Nurokor Tens machine and wondered what the general feedback is on whether they work on chronic pain or not.

I am 56 years old and pretty fit (apart from my heart valve issue!) and have just had valve replacement by open heart surgery. Keen to understand the recovery time for chest pain reduction post surgery? Is it weeks or months?

Hi all Well the Cardioversion only lasted 2 days so that’s the last time for that option baring life threatening situation. I have had 3 ablations so exhausted that option too. Where do I go from here??? I am now in persistent AF and diagnosed with Heart Failure as a result. I know the final option is

I have been taking Erleada 240mg a day for 60 days .It’s causing my heart rate to drop. Is anyone aware of a cancer med that does not effect heart functions. Besides periodic muscle spasms that’s the only drawback. Thx

Had rapid atrial quivering/fibrillation develop in Feb '21 while I was focused on avoiding a second heart attack after having had a major one 9½ years earlier. Got put on meds to see if AFib could be managed that way but worsened to the point that by Aug, my heart was tracked at 244 BPM and I'd collapsed

Any tips for getting rid of Plantar Fasciitis (a painful heel)? I have had it since September 21, probably caused by digging in inappropriate footwear, and although it's slowly getting better, it ain't gone yet. My previous bout 30 years ago took six months before I hardly noticed it. I have tried rest

So we are currently 28 weeks pregnant (by far the furthest we’ve ever got). Anyone following our story on the other forum will know it has been a long one and the pregnancy itself has been a complicated one throughout! Our little one has been diagnosed with TGA (a severe heart defect that will require

I have finally been able to source tirosint and compounded t3 in the uk!! I am going on 50mg of tirosint and 11mg t3. However I am not sure how to split this dose through out the day. I am on armour 1 1/4 grains and I take this split morning and before bed. I did like the armour but I am still getting

I’m on amlodipine (Ca channel blocker) and metoprolol (beta blocker). Plus flecainide (Na channel blocker). All fairly low doses. I have to come off them before my fourth ablation for four days so not looking forward to that. Anyone experienced withdrawal symptoms doing same?

A thorax CT in September identified coronary artery disease. An angiogram in November verified extent of above as moderate to severe calcification in the LAD vessel. You would have thought drug therapy would have commenced immediately to prevent either a stroke or heart attack but NO, it wasn’t until

Hi I had a triple heart bypass 1 year ago, is it safe to come off my blood thinners now

Good afternoon, I was diagnosed with Intermittent AF in January last year. I had my first episode in January 2021 and was Cardioverted. This only lasted 3 weeks and then I had an episode lasting approx 4 weeks which reverted spontaneously. I have had none since. I am currently suffering from right knee

Was just wondering when its safe to go swimming again after heart bypass , when will it be ok for stitches and chlorine in water.

Three weeks after major heart attack and three stents fitted, I’m still getting the odd pain in my heart region. Sometimes I get a little pain in my heart while taking a deep breath. Sometimes it’s just a single pain and it goes and sometimes four or five pains each time I breathe. It was more so in

My elective heart surgery went horribly wrong. First a stroke and then a junior doctor in the stroke unit wrongly deciding that I was allergic to blood thinners and putting me on a drip of Vitamin K.
