Should I have delayed an angiogram?
They reduced the Diltiazem, and wanted to book an angiogram soon, before considering a
pacemaker
. I was worried about corvid, at the Hospital, so they then booked me in later, for early August. Was this unwise? Anyone think I should not have delayed? Advice needed.

AFIB free from CPAP and ASD
I got an emergency
pacemaker
for the bradycardia. I then tried various meds for afib, none of which worked. I went to Dr. Huang at U of Rochester. After an ultrasound, he said to go right away and get checked for apnea. This was based on my enlarged left atrium.

She was moved from the ICU to the normal unit 2 days ago and is currently awaiting the
pacemaker
installation. What worries me is that for the past two days she dosent remember anybody including herself. She cant sleep nearly at all and is constantly mumbling things from the past.

Advice on Corona please
Corona advice - a
pacemaker
due to complete heart block, as well as factor V Leiden clotting disorder, would this sit me in the 12 week isolation criteria. Thankyou

Should I ask my PG for a referral to a cardiologist?
Everything I have read about LBBB suggests that I should have a regular check-up, and potentially may need a
pacemaker
, but my GP has not suggested any follow-up check-ups; so basically left me to get on with it!

Support when caring for my mum
she was fitted with a
pacemaker
on 5th March and less than a week later went into respiratory failure and was again rushed to hospital, she has now been told she has a leaking mitral valve and severe heart failure but isn’t strong enough for a replacement valve.

Dentists in times of Covid
He said that I should have it extracted at the Kings Hospital dental department as that was where I had my ICD/
pacemaker
inserted last November. He 'phoned me that night to say he had referred me. I didn't get an appointment before lockdown, in fact, no communication at all.

Are pacemakers effective at stopping atrial fibrillation
I have atrial fibrillation and would like to know if a
pacemaker
would be better than having an ablation to eliminate the problem.
