Could anyone share with me their experience of the process, experience and effectiveness of the Implanted Loop Recorder?
Hi Friends, I am having a loop recorder implanted on Friday at Barts. I was feeling quite positive about the idea but as the day gets nearer find myself getting myself getting nervous about it. My main anxiety is that in some way way in will cause to me have another A-fib episode, which I haven

So tired and p****d off
I swear bad luck just absolutely follows us. I’m just so tired of it all. The dreaming, the hopes only to get slapped in the face multiple times. Bad sperm, crap eggs, and now the era has shown I’m pre receptive so not even that works properly. Thought we had 2 embryos left just had a call to say they

What Long Term Pain Killers do you use?
My doctor is trying to take me off cocodamol and giving me paracetamol as it’s not long term. I keep informing them that paracetamol is not going to help and I would just be in so muhc pain. What other medications do you guys use to manage flare ups. I’m currently having one can’t get out of bed I’m

Post ablation arrhythmia
I am almost 4 months post ablation for atrial fibrillation. Whilst jogging after my daughter, who was on her scooter, I had an odd heart episode. It may have been AF, but it felt like it could also have been ectopics combined with sinus rhythm - my heart was already beating quite fast, which made it

Rituximab and tetanus (etc.)
This is to all my fellow immune suppressed folks about rituximab. I've been unable to find solid information, and my consultants aren't sure, so wondered if anyone here knows. Does rituximab impact our tetanus jabs and similar? I was up to date on all my boosters, but got bit by a tick on Saturday (think

Anyone else tried it!
Had an appointment with Arrythmia nurse today. In AF when I arrived and picked up on ecg twice. My episodes are getting closer together and Flecainide at 100 x2 is no longer holding them. I am wondering if slowly weaning myself off it and going permanent will be a better bet. All thoughts gratefully

Sliding into persistent Afib
Hello I am on Flecaine 200 ( slow release) and 3.75 Bisoprolol. I usually get episodes 1 or 2 times a month the longest lasting between 5 an7 hours which self resolve. However last Saturday/Sunday night at 2 in the morning I popped into Afib. This lasted until in 1 pm the next day. I was a bit wiped

Ectopic beats are a pain.
Hello everybody, hope you’re all as well as can be, 10 months post 2nd ablation and over a month ago came off of flecainide, still taking bisoprolol and apixaban. I spoke to my ep last week and said all was well was having some bumps but felt the ablation was blocking them quite well, hunky dory we both

Afib
I have been taking 5.mg of Apixaban twice a day for a year for Afib I have no energy whatsoever so tired all the time. Blurred vision aching legs. Can’t go on like this. Anybody else on Apixaban experience these systoms? My house is a mess can’t find the energy to do simple tidying up.

How do you feel when in AF?
I am 66 and got diagnosed with AF last November and am on anti coagulants and beta blockers. I have been relatively fine since then other than the odd ectopic and fluttering but just for a few seconds. Then three days ago in the early hours of the morning I woke up with a thump in my chest and my heart

Am I now in permanent AF?
Just a brief introduction , I have been suffering from AF for about 5 years and after 3 ablations ,1 was for flutter, I was getting episodes every 2 to 3 weeks usually lasting 4 to 6 hours. These episodes are usually terminated by PIP flecainide and metoprolol . I’m used to them now and basically ride

Increased pain after pudendal nerve block.
As a last resort I had a pudendal
nerve
block
in my left buttock 17 days ago. The pain in the injection site is almost unbearable. I hoped this would turn my life around but it has just done the opposite.

Optical nerve block steroid injections in head, side effects
Hi all, A week ago I had my first steroid injections in my head for my chronic headaches and dizziness. I was told about possible side effects, but this is beyond what I anticipated: 1. Two days after the injections i started having severe headache (literally 9,5/10) where I ended up in bed for 2 full

May the Fourth be with me!
Headed to my fourth ablation today after many deliberations. Cardioversion took care of an atrial tachycardia episode back in February. Per EP’s instructions, came off metoprolol and flecainide four days prior to today … and amazingly no Afib or flutter. In fact, feeling quite well. So wondering if I

Edoxaban dangers

Can a TENS device help with mood and pain relief?
A TENS device has a pad which is attached to your body. Small electrical pulses are sent to the affected area which can either distract you from pain or even dismiss it completely. I tried it for Auto Immune Encephalitis and Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. It's relatively early days as we've

AFib, Post Ablation, & Sex
I haven't seen this topic here and I don't know if it's within the guidelines but here goes: What relationship have folks here experienced between sex, Afib, and the post-Ablation period? When my Afib started, there was some correlation between having episodes after having had sex. Apparently, sexual

Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation - TENS type machine
