AF triggers
I wrote this as a reply to another post but decided that it would just be hijacking the original post, so started a new one. I definitely have triggers for AF. Anything that my body doesn’t like will trigger AF. I have a very difficult diet. I am intolerant to gluten, dairy and soya. If I have any

AFib/Atrial Flutter Burden
Hello All, I just received my results from a 7 day Zio Monitor test. It says my AFib/Atrial Flutter burden is 18%, which is up from 3% last year. This seems significant to me and a little panic producing. My average heart rate while in these episodes is in the 80s. Even when not on a beta blocker my

I can't sleep feel like my heart is going to stop
It's one of those nights again. I feel pressure in my chest. I thought I was going to be able to sleep today but I guess not. Its frustrating because I was already falling asleep but I was awaken by a sudden jerk. Now every time I am falling asleep I get woken up by the sudden jerk that makes me feel

Atrial fibrillation post ablation
Hi everyone! I have read the info sheet and noted that palpitations are normal for some time after an ablation. I had my second ablation 5 weeks ago for afib and flutter. Everything was quite quiet for 4 weeks and then bam a few minutes of afib. Now I have had a minute or so of afib everyday. My EPs

Metoprolol
I had an ablation a few weeks ago, I'm doing ok, except for the fatigue, shortness of breath and cough. I am in sinus. I believe the above issues are related to Metoprolol I take 25mg x 2 daily, Flecainaide 50mg 2 daily and 5mg Eliquis 2 daily. I have my follow up appt next week with my EP. I'm really

Heart rate in afib and when to go to ER or A&E
Sitting down watching tv and I felt in my chest I was trying to go into afib, so I grabbed my trusty oximeter and put it on and watched HR go down from 80s to 70s to 60s to 50s to 40s to a reading of 37 HR. Freaked me out so I got another oximeter different manufacturer and put it on and it read 37.

What Helps You Stay Awake During Daytime
My husband has stage 4 CRPC and has a fib so he cannot drink caffeinated coffee so how does he stay awake during the day? This is especially embarrassing during church. Any suggestions that have worked for others are appreciated.

Cardio training with Afib
I was diagnosed by a cardiologist with lone

three years ago. My condition stabilized after being prescribed Flecainide, Apixaban and Rosuvastatin (the latter as a preventative to lower cholesterol).

Post Ablation Diagnosis
I have been very fortunate and had my Afib ablation in Leicester in May. I had excellent treatment with very minimal side effects from the procedure and am back doing exercise and best of all, no episodes of Afib - so all very positive even though it is very early days. My follow up appointment is in

Sleep and Afib
As predicted my occasional episodes of A Fib which began in 2007 has recently become more of a problem. They are now presenting differently tho. My resting heart beat is about 60bpm and whilst in Afib they are now usually 60 to 75, only rising further when I am moving about. My question is can anyone

AF - Sudden Increase To Every Night
I occasionally get a very slight twinge or spasm in my heart during some mild exertion - a gentle bike ride or lifting the hoover for example. This often kicks off an AF bout the following night. I had the twinge thing on a ride a couple of weeks ago which caused an 11 hour bout of AF, and since then

Blood pressure warning
More fun and frolics. Before I went to pamper myself in Montenegro (swimming in the sea, lounging on the Cabana) I checked my blood pressure which I do regularly and noticed a little warning sign like a heart next to my diastolic. The literature said to seek advice so I asked him in doors and he casually
