Irregular heartrate
I had Open Heart Surgery twice in April 2019 to repair a Thoracic Ascending Aortic Aneurysm. Was in a months in total. After surgery I was in a month with infections and various bouts of AFIB. I was initially on Amiodarone. 3 weeks later I had other bouts of Afib brought on by Pneumonia and Sepsis.

Sauna.
I had my heart surgery a year ago. Repairing a thoracic aneurysm and replacing a bicuspid valve. My son is leaving home today and I was considering what to do with his room. He suggested I install an infrared sauna and I love the idea. It would certainly help to ease the osteoarthritis pain I've started

AFib or other arrhythmia??
Hi peeps, as some of you know, I was diagnosed with Afib last year. Prior to this, I had had another type of arrhythmia for many years and had been under a cardiology dept for nearly as long. My problem now is differentiating between Afib and the other arrhythmia. When I was first taken to hospital

Gluten-free Fishcakes and Tzatziki dip.🐠😸😻😋❤️🌺
I felt so much energy today so I decided to be creative in my kitchen. Thank you Happyman4 for inspiring me to make fishcakes with Greek yogurt dip in mind. 😊🙏 My fishcakes recipe: 1. Defrost cods and fillet and mash them in a bowl (I like to taste some fish chunks so I don’t make them too mushy).

One year on.
My elective heart surgery went badly wrong and cost me an arm and a leg. I remember being told, while pinned to the bed, that, a year from now, I would be fully functioning again and happy with the benefits of my operation. Surgery to repair an aneurysm and replace a bicuspid valve is never going to

I have had chest pain for 7 years..
Hi all It all started 7 years ago, I didn't do anything to cause it, atleast not from what I remember.

Atrial Fibrillation or not?
My query is do I have Atrial Fibrillation or should it be named something else. I have a normal sinus rhythm but I am tachycardic and the heart rate spikes at times. I have frequent ectopic beats but have been advised they are of no concern. Just been prescribed 1.25mg of Bisoprolol.

Skipped beats in a row
I can go about my day to day fine with no symptoms, and out of nowhere and during my sleep I can have about 5 skipped beats in a row before I jump back into NSR - does anyone else have experience of this? It’s very jolting waiting to go back to NSR, I’m about to start bisopropol to see if this will help

What does cardiac rehab class involve after mitral valve repair?
It is 3 months since my op (open heart surgery for valve repair & ablation for AF) and I have not had any cardiac rehab yet. I was meant to get notice of something, but nothing has happened yet. Can anyone tell me what it involves, eg is it a group or 1:1 and what happens in the time? Any experience

Double bypass
Had a double bypass on the 13th May. All went well and my wounds have healed really well and now discharged back into the care of my GP. My problem is my very low mood and my anger. I'm extremely sad to the point of crying nearly every single day. Then out of the blue I become very angry at the slightest
