Where do I go from here? Afib or arythmia any difference?
Editing my post as no replies.Never known this but maybe too muddled. Until 31st of January I had Paroxysmal AF with only 2 attacks in 18 months. This changed from 31st January. At first a typical afib attack .Feeling faint, dizziness,unable to walk around the house without being breathless. This

Recommendations to stop feeling sick with heart failure?
Still waiting for the final part of node ablation and switching on of CRT device. Implanted 8 weeks ago and still no news of the next bit. Rang hospital today and they could not tell me anything. Just got to keep waiting. Even though the EP casually said just give me a ring if you feel unwell and I’ll

Dr FREI REUSABLE MASK WITH VALVE - RECALL.
My wife has just had a fascinating morning with Amazon as we received 6 e mails yesterday asking for these to be returned as it has been found they only have 5% instead of 95% efficacy as found in Iceland - the country not the shop. I just want to let you know that you can contact Amazon customer services

Long-term Flecainide for atrial tachycardia
Well, my pulse rate is mostly regular now. The strange thing is, I can still feel it doing the occasional somersault and palpitations, even though the pulse remains regular. Anyone else had this?

Return to Afib with a vengeance
Had two ablations the last one September 2020. Have taken Apixaban and 1.25mg Bisoprolol after reduction from 2.5mg. About December/January i stopped taking any Bisoprolol and after maybe 6/8 weeks I noticed when taking my BP I missed a heart beat every 30 or so. Instead of discussing with the Cardiologist

Minimal Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement
I had Minimal Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement 3 weeks ago as I had a bicuspid valve. I am at home 2 weeks now and having a lot of difficulty sleeping. Is this normal? I am quite anxious as I get pain in my chest and start to imagine all sorts. Minimal invasive is far less traumatic than open heart

Tens machine advice
Hi! I've just got myself a tens machine and I absolutely love it. Just wondering if I can get some tips for getting the best put of it from people who have been using it longer? Any tips or tricks would be welcome 😁 I'm still figuring it all out!

Gluten free apple tart
Hi everyone, I made this apple tart with the base made with cooked wild rice mixed with an egg and then blind baked it for about 15 mins before I covered 3 Bramley apples lightly stewed with chia seeds and a little brown sugar. I put flaked almonds on top and baked for another 20 mins and am looking

Can I damage my testicles by mild massaging/checking for potential problems?
I've had some lower right abdomen, for some time now. I've had some problems with bowels movement, but I started to suspect it might actually be one of my testicles. I think it is actually a back pain problem, it is such a vague pain I can't even tell exactly where I have it. It doesn't matter. What

Those little side effects after heart surgery..... :)
Hello, it's been a while since I last posted. I'm recovering well from my mitral valve repair, getting on my wattbike and rower (under the supervision of my lovely NHS Physio). I have two questions: 1. 'burping' - yes I know. I'd never had an issue with this before the above and I have to say it's

The Value of a Good Compounding Pharmacist, a True Story
Although I generally write about supplements, sometimes supplements are simply not enough and prescription meds can be beneficial in different forms that doctors and patients are sometimes not aware of. To ignore that fact is folly on the patient's part in my opinion. I am writing this true story to

Metoprolol and hair loss.
This may not be relevant to anyone reading this but I had an experience about 3 mo. ago concerning metoprolol. I had taken for my heart for over 2 years. I began losing my hair at an alarming rate. My cardiologist said to stop the metoprolol and begin Cardizem CD. The hair loss has moderated but

Woo hoo heart surgery 🫀
Asking for anyone’s experience of surgical ablation as opposed to catheter ablation? Was told yesterday by cardiologist that my case has been reviewed by local teaching hospital with the EP team & they hope to do a surgical ablation (if I want it). Now some people would not opt for surgical treatment

Changing from Lovenox injections to Coumadin
Is there a standard INR for those on Coumadin/Warfarin? My nephew (CAPS survivor) is transitioning from Lovenox (been injecting twice daily for almost 2 years) to Coumadin starting this week. Dr. checked his baseline INR a couple days ago and it is 1. How do they determine where they want your INR

Ongoing AF with low HR
My AF seems to be back after four blissfully trouble-free years (for AF that is, not life in general, lol) . It started last Wednesday out of the blue and has continued ever since. Occasionally I get a reading on my Kardia of Sinus Rhythm with Supraventricular Ectopy, which is what I thought it was
