MRI results yesterday. Anybody in a similar awful position please?
Dear Community, Since I began my very unwelcome AFib journey in 2020 the people here have given me so much support and some great ideas and so am anxiously asking for suggestions and to see if anyone is in the same boat. Yesterday I was diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and since then I

Cardioversion
My consultant is recommending cardioversion as the next step in my AF treatment, primarily in order that I can stop taking bisoprolol as this appears to be impacting on my asthma. Has anyone experience of this procedure, success rates, issues with it etc?

IRL1117, Potential Improvement on Levodopa, May Enter Clinical Trial
IRLAB Therapeutics has selected a dopamine receptor agonist candidate called IRL1117 to advance as a Parkinson’s disease treatment, potentially as a longer-lasting alternative to levodopa with lesser side effects. IRL1117 is designed to be a once-daily oral therapy for the hallmark symptoms of Parkinson

Choose Capivasertib or 177Lu-PSMA-617 clinical trial or stick with ADT + radiation?
Hi Folks, My PSA is up to 49 from 24 last summer. After bone scan, CT scan indicated 3 sites of mets (2 on pelvis, 1 on L5, overall “low volume”). Otherwise feeling great, working out most days. 58. I was finally able to get in this month to see a Medical Oncologist. Starting on ADT next week. Meeting

Atrial Fibrillation & Implantation of Fiducials & Spaceoar at UCLA.
I am presently setting up a new date for Spaceoar, Fiducials , and SBRT under IV SEDATION at UCLA with Dr. Kishan.
About three months ago I received a vaccine shot for Shingles and it caused 17 hours of AFIB at Cedars Sinai ER at a Heartrate of over 202 bpm. ( I received the shot at 2:45 pm

Terbium-161 instead of Lutetium-177
Here's an intriguing abstract from the ASCO conference that is going on right now (February 2023). Hofman and company in Australia are starting a clinical trial (NCT05521412) to evaluate using Tb-161 instead of Lu-177 linked to the PSMA-I&T targeting ligand. The hope is that the shorter range and higher

177LU-DTPA-SC16 attaching DLL3 for neuroendocrine cancer
25% of pCA develop into neuroendocrine variant. Research show good preclinical results. Has anyone information of a clinical trial at MSKCC using SC16 as a monoclonal antibody? https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35759660/

📚 Research 101: Who can take part in a clinical trial?
All clinical trials have guidelines about who can participate. Before joining a clinical trial, a participant must qualify for the study. The factors that allow someone to participate in a clinical trial are called "inclusion criteria" and those that disallow someone from participating are called "exclusion

Some input from the community
Just wanted to get some of you folks opinion on something. I started my Afib journey back in 1999 and after countless Cardioversions, homeopathic regimens, anti-arrythmia dru[u]g[/u] regimens, lifestyle changes nothing has worked until recently when my doctor put me on 200mgs a day of Amiodarone.

Focal Ablation doesn't work (again)
Cryo joins HIFU, FLA, and IRE as substandard focal thermoablation therapies. Aker et al. reported (below) that on biopsy 18 months post-treatment, 35% still had clinically significant prostate cancer (only 46% had no prostate cancer), and that neither MRI nor PSA were good indicators of treatment failure

Ambroxol
Would anyone share if you have participated in a clinical trial using the drug Ambroxol for PD? There have been several clinical trials which have published encouraging resusts, mostly in the UK. I am not formally in a trial but have been duplicating the dosage for about 12 months. My experience is favorable

Ablation in March, discharged in August
I am very appreciative of the support provided by this forum. I appear to be one of the lucky ones in that I had my ablation back in March at Bournemouth Hospital and it went well with a quick recovery. I have had no Afib episodes since, I was put on a 7 day monitor back in June which showed nothing

Just diagnosed AFib
Hi, I am reaching out to you because I was just diagnosed with A Fib as well as an irregular heart beat and prescribed Apixaban (and Metroprolol to use if my heart goes out of control -it has a couple of times). Can anyone tell me if I should have any concerns about Apixaban. What I can expect.

To those who replied to my question on clinical trials
To those who replied to my question on joining clinical trials, I am overwhelmed by your kindness in sending me emails. I will answer your emails soon but I am currently recovering from a cataract operation and though my eyesight has improved a lot I still have difficulty reading and writing. Bear

Flecainide - Timings?
I’m on 100mg of Flecainide, 50mg twice a day, no beta blockers. My afib is of a paroxysmal nature and each episode lasts usually no more than an hour or so, sometimes minutes. It is however very intense and uncomfortable! I can usually self terminate by exercise or various vagal manoeuvres. I have
