Vagus Nerve Stimulation?
Anyone looked into this? I've been looking into this a little bit on and off. I have Graves disease and my heart rate variability is somewhat low (disturbingly low 😂) anyway, I've suffered a lot of trauma in life and apparently this can affect the Vagus Nerve which in turn has negative affects on the

shingles jab anyone?
I had a very bad bout of shingles three years ago. Yesterday my doctors surgery rang to say I qualified for a jab! I tried to ask if it was worthwhile for someone who had already had shingles and was told she was the receptionist! Fair enough but then you can’t speak to a medic anymore Any thoughts

Tetanus
Not too far back there was a discussion about having a Tetanus shot, might help PD. I tried a search and came up with only one 2 year old post. No very Techy. Can someone help me find the link to that discussion? Thank you

Flare after Shingrix shingles vaccine?
Hi Everyone, I received my second (recombinant) shingles vaccine yesterday. The first one caused a mild fever and malaise. This time my finger joints are stiff and pretty painful. Has anyone else had something similar and, if so, how long did it last? Thanks so much

Sinus Rhythm with Various other Arrhythmias
Since having my first Afib episode in over a year after an ablation in March, 2022, I've had a very few additional Afib episodes.

Petrified of supposedly "benign" skipped heart beats.
I am obsessed with my skipped heart beats even though the 7 day event patch didn't show anything wrong. I want an echocardiogram, but I have to pay as the cardiologist and government don't think I need one. I live in New Zealand, and if the issue is serious or the doctor thinks it is warranted, then

shoulder pain PMR or costocondritis?
I recently ranted about having to jump the queue to get a suprascapular
nerve
block
(avoiding a 12 month waiting list ) rather than reverse shoulder surgery which is a massive procedure in comparison .

Could I stop taking Rivaoxaban?
I’ve been on Flecainide, Bisoprolol and Rivaoxaban now for 5 years and have a pacemaker, my heart is in sinus rhythm at 60bpm. I understand that Rivaoxaban is to help prevent blood clots forming, but as my AF is now managed could I stop taking it? I get frequent gum bleeds despite excellent oral hygiene

I don't know what to do!!
Here is my situation. I have Atrial Tachycardia/SVT. I had a 14 day Holter that showed a 20% average burden of Supra ventricular Ectopy. I had an 11% burden of SVT. I had, on average, 20-30,000 ectopic beats every day, and 6-700 runs of SVT per day. Most of my episodes occur at night. From 10pm

AFib after 2nd Shingles jab
I only occasionally get Afib now following an ablation in 2020, but I had my 2nd shingles jab 3 days ago and it seems to have kicked off my afib again albeit not constantly. I just wondered if anyone else has had the same effect from the 2nd jab (as it is supposedly worse than the 1st) or is it just
