Return of the Duck. The Saga Continues.......
Good morning guys and gals.Hope everyone is as well as they can be. Well, here's the promised update from a couple of years ago but to be fair, nothing much had happened on the heart surgery front, I'd been in nsr and I have still been contributing replies. Settle down with a strong drink of choice,

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

Robotic surgery?
My mitral valve is deteriorating and surgery is in my future. I’m 72, in good health besides aFib and my valve. I’m interested in robotic surgery and if I would qualify. Curious what other folks experience is.

Post op mitral valve
Hi I had a mitral valve replacement in March. The op went as expected but the next day I went into cardiac arrest and had to be reopened on the spot, after getting my heart beating again i was put in an induced coma for a few days til I was able to be brought out of it. It has left me with many triggers

Palpitations when poorly
I'm on bisoprolol 1.25 once a day for skipped beats. I have had two heart surgeries one fallot tetralogy one for pulmonary valve replacement. Does anyone experience more skipped beats or flutters when they have a cold etc?

Running capacity after mitral valve replacement
I had mechanical mitral valve replacement surgery last year. On Warfarin and Bisoprolol 5mg.I did a 5K parkrun yesterday in 31m 35s. I feel I had more in my locker to reduce race time further. Considering I have mechanical mitral valve and taking beta blocker Bisoprolol, how much further can I physically

Warfrin and flying
Hi, off on holiday for the first time since a stent and mitral valve replacement and being given Warfrin, I love to fly and this is only a 4 hour flight. I’ve waited a year before taking a flight. I’m excited and scared all rolled into one. INR is stable. I know in my heart I’m going to be ok, but

Hi, Does anyone have post surgery heart flutters.? I am ten weeks post surgery and still having palpitations/flutters, told I am not in a fib and it is just the heart settling down but it does scare me! also makes me feel a bit giddy. Have others had similar after valve replacement?

Edwards Inspiris Resilia tissue valve- People's experiences with this?
Hi All! I'm aware that there's only limited number of people who have this valve, as from what I gather it isn't offered at many hospitals as a treatment option. But is there anyone here who has had a Edwards Inspiris Resilia tissue valve replacement? I'm due to see my cadiac surgeon very soon to discuss

URGENT help needed please .. heart operations cancelled because of suppressed TSH
Hi I was supposed to have a pacemaker & then an ablation 6 weeks later at Liverpool heart hospital as part of the pre op they did a blood test TSH 0.001 they cancelled the ops & referred me urgently to an endo I’m due a telephone consultation with endo on the 5th September which is absolutely ridiculous

Weight-loss drugs/surgery after valve replacement?
Hi all, I'm a 34yo male with a massive eating problem, this has been ever since I've been an adult really, just a really poor relationship with food. I had my heart valve replaced with a mechanical one a couple of years ago (completely unrelated to weight, was a random infection on the valve) and I
