Updates on AF meds
Hello. Had appointment with AF specialist yesterday at Berks Cardiology. Everything went well. He explained everything in detail of my options, and basically said it's my choice to do whatever I wanted. I told him I wanted to exercise again at the gym, he said I could do whatever I wanted to do, but

1st question re cardioversion
Hello everyone - I'm 68 and have had AF for about 2 years. Apart from a brief conversation re cardioversion and ablation when I was 1st diagnosed, none of the cardiologists I have seen have suggested that I should have cardioversion. I am currently taking 10mg of Bisoprolol a day in two 5mg tablets,

Endurance sport and Afib
Hi All, I am new to the group. Some very good posts with lots of living experiences with AFib. I was diagnosed with AFib approximately 3 years ago but suspect I had it a lot longer not knowing the symptoms putting it down to fatigue. It was an Apple Watch that alerted me to AFib and after a hospital

Breast cancer - mastectomy or not
Hi allI was diagnosed with Stage 4a high grade serous OC in September 2022 and I've just had my last post-surgery chemo (for the time being at least)😊. I'm BRCA2 and aged 60 and the hospital genetics team have been telling me about the risk of getting breast cancer (as if ovarian cancer wasn't enough

Waiting for ablation
I started in Afib June 2022 after covid, was diagnosed in August and put on Edoxaban and bisoprolol by my GP. In October I was seen by a specialist and put on Amiodarone (I've mentioned the side effects before.. thanks for the responses) and put on the waiting list for a cardioversion. That was done

Results on Armour Thyroid - Help
Hi, I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in July 2013 (10 years ago). Was put on 50 mcg Synthroid, then in 2014 I started taking a synthetic compound of T4/T3. Worked with my integrative NP for 5 more years to adjust this compound to get to a comfortable dose of 80 t4/12 t3 mcg. Then in December of 2021

Afib caused by low heart rate? Ectopics when exercising.
Good morning all,I've had some rather interesting observations over the last few weeks that I would like to share. As background, I had an ablation in July which helped me reduce my Flecainide dose from 2x100 to 2x50mg per day and reduced my Afib episodes to about once per week. My resting heart rate

Cough lozenges
I’ve got a tickly cough and want to suck a lozenge in the hope it will sooth it. I’ve got some Wilko lozenges that are Amylmetacresol. Does anyone know if they are ok to use with Warfarin and Bisoprolol - and of course Afib ! I can’t find this ingredient listed in drug interaction websites so I’m guessing

What would you do in my shoes?
For those who haven't read my profile, back history, 56 year old otherwise healthy female living in Houston, diagnosed with Afib with RVR after throwing up after migraine, have had lots of mini events since (apparently) but not full blown afib. My atria are definitely very kindled now to arrhythmias

Is this A Fib
Hi all, I was diagnosed with PAF in October, I met with a group of friends yesterday and spent a couple of hours chatting, feeling absolutely fine, but when I looked at my FitBit later it recorded my heart rate at between 95 and 120 for 50 minutes. It doesn’t even do this when I’m out walking. The only

Ablation - worries
Hi everyone. I am on the waiting list at Glenfield Hospital in the UK for an ablation I have paroxysmal AF diagnosed in 2020 and I take Sotalol 40mg x 3 a day and Apixaban 5mg x 2 a day.

Decision making
I am having a hard time justifying doing anything about my Afib since I feel really good most of the time. Even in Afib I'm pretty good except for the worrying and checking of my heart rate every little bit. I have recently backed out of an RF ablation and a Cryo ablation for fear of a poor outcome

Coming off Amiodarone
After developing Afib (thanks to Covid) I was put on amiodarone, bisoprolol and edoxaban. A terrible two to three weeks followed without a wink of sleep getting the amiodarone into my system. I had a cardioversion a few months later (delayed thanks to doctors and nurses strikes). That worked and I felt
