Any one else in their 20s or 30s with Af from drinking?
Read a few posts on here and decided to join with my story.... I'm a 25 year old Male who was recently diagnosed with "Holiday heart syndrome" and multiple pulmonary embolisms after drinking way too much beer and fireball (this happened roughly two weeks before Christmas). The first sign came the morning

Wot? No Metoprolol......
Just been to pick up my monthly prescription........pharmacist told me I CANNOT have Metoprolol anymore, because there is a "manufacturing problem", so I must contact my GP and get him to prescribe an alternative!!! Great! I have been taking it for over 5 years, with no issues, so I am obviously anxious

COMBINATION OF METOPROLOL & AMIODARONE
This is an extract from an article I read about AFib. I wondered if anybody else can expand on it: In some cases, a doctor may prescribe metoprolol for an irregular heartbeat. A 2013 study found that, when used with amiodarone (another heart medication), metoprolol could effectively prevent atrial fibrillation

My ablation experience
Hi everyone, I wanted to share my recent ablation experience as I know there are others who have upcoming procedures and still others who are deciding whether or not to go the ablation route to address their arrhythmias. Since I found the experiences of others helpful in my own decision making and coping

How I Conquered Heart-Disease and What I Have Learned in the Process
Before I relay the story, please read this first: What is the nature of your diet? Do you consume: - soft drinks, alcohol or fruit juices? If so, how often? - pasta, rice, bread, pizza, potatoes? - potato chips (crisps), pretzels, crackers? - fried foods (including fried eggs)? French fries? -

metoprolol
Been on metoprolol for 14 months since I had a stroke due to afib. Started on 25 mg then cut in half 12.5 mg. My primary doc changed me to carvedilol 3.125mg 9 days ago due to sob. I feel like a new person, I've done more in a week than I have in six months!

Finally a Diagnosis
Hello everyone! I have been reading a lot of posts on this forum while I waited for my holter results. It all started 8 years ago when I was 25. I had just gotten out of the Army and was in the best shape of my life. One evening, my band was performing (drummer) when I felt my heart beating so fast,

Significance of TSH
I was diagnosed in 03/17 with hyperthyroidism. I let symptoms go on for years and am paying the consequences. I developed a-fib, mitral valve regurgitation, congestive heart failure and severe osteoporosis. I think that my endocrinologist is good, but I usually see a nurse practitioner or physician's

Possible ablation complication
Hello - my name is Ally and I’m 58. I had an atrial tach ablation along with a clean up of the pulmonary veins he ablated 17 years ago for AF. Ever since the procedure (8 weeks ago) I have severely short of breath with walking or sitting upright. My heart rate never goes above 110 but it rises from

Survived 19 years abuse rel. Still in midst of escape. Alienating my four girls to control. Developed constant high anxiety, now high BP!
I found you guys by googling my new BP med. Last three years on Clonodine and it was a Godsend for anxiety but doesn't seem to be helping BP anymore. Doc added Metoprolol today. Any advice how to proceed? I think he's trying to wean me off Clonodine but I need it for anxiety. I'm sitting here freaking

Tomorrow is 14 weeks post ablation
Except for my crazy afib episode that happened 3 days after my ablation, I’m happy to report that I’m doing well. I had a 1 minute episode confirmed by my Kardia device, about 4 weeks ago. I had another one last night, literally 10 seconds long, where my heart went out of wack. Both times I was at my

Update: third ablation a charm
Hi everyone hope people see this as I didn’t get much response on my post prior the third ablation. Which happened in a flurry! This was my third ablation in less than two years. For those fearful of CV and Ablation take one step at a time and go with- The fib/flutter stops you in your track and changes

Off Beta Blockers
Age 50. Been on Metoprolol (beta blocker), statins and aspirin since July 2018. Had 1 stent fitted end of August 2018. Then on the clopidogrel as well. All pretty good since then. Saw surgeon in Dec and he advised coming off the metoprolol as my BP was surprisingly low. So reduced to half dose for two

Thank you to everyone.
Hi all. I want to thank all those of you who replied to my post a couple of months ago after I was diagnosed with AF. Apart from the usual AF symptoms, I was suffering from frequent & severe 'bursting' sensations in the head which no one (not even the doctors) could identify. I changed the Bisoprolol

I can't cry or shed tears!
Hello Everyone, I have a great concern about my eyes. I can't seem to cry at all or shed any tears! That worries me so much! I used to be able tp cru when I felt the need to do so but now I can't. My eyes seem dry...very dry! I didn't have this problem until I started taking and stopping that beta blocker

Getting the Meds Right Short of Ablation
After being only on the Beta Blocker, Metoprolol 25 mg. x 3 daily, and not being afib free, my doctor put me on Flecainide in addition to the Metoprolol. After one week on Flecainide 50 mg. x 2 day and Metoprolol 25 mg. x 2 day, I went into afib at 11:05 am on 12/28 with the kind of ragged, wild, rapid

My 2018 and Happy New Year!
I'm inspired by the year-end posts and have been reflecting on 2018 myself. Funny how at year-end, I find myself feeling much as I did as the year began, which was right after my 2nd ablation in Dec. 2017. After months of various ups and downs and episodes and exploring 2 AF forums that had me skedaddling
