19 days post cyroablation
Working in the yard today felt a slight shortness of breath, came in and pulled out the kardia pad... Surprise, surprise..."possible atrial fibrillation"...I am familiar with the blanking period and hopefully this is an anomaly and NSR returns. Just thought I would share my disappointment and ask

AV - Ablation and Tachycardia-Bradycardia
I have been diagnosed with Tachycardia-Bradycardia, a condition I have l had for many years. I must admit I did not have many physical or annoying symptoms, but had had periodic high blood pressure readings even while taking 50mg of Metoprolol daily. I also had occasional pulse readings ranging from

Paroxysmal Afib affecting sleep
Just when I was beginning to relax the good old afib hit me like a hammer at 5am Monday morning waking me with a jolt. I had a very stressful weekend with relationships out of control with my family so I suppose I half expected it. Unfortunately, I am very symptomatic and my episodes go on for around

Desperate for help
next Friday I will have a PSMA PTscan , which I failed because lie straight on the table due to pain. Lately, with the doctor it has been decided to cut the pain meds. Removed patches, pills down. Ok! Tried to lie down straight and I couldn’t do it!? What can be done in order to get me ready for the

Ablation for ventricular tachycardia
When I've posted here before over the last 8 years it has been about my own fairly benign AF, which needed a second cardioversion a few months ago. This time, I'd welcome your advice for my wife, who has patiently put up with my moans and groans, and herself went into ventricular tachycardia a couple

Ectopics one after the other
Hi there, I hope it's ok to join? I've posted on here before on the British Heart Foundation but I wondered if anyone here could also help me. Very brief history, I am female, aged 47 and perimenopausal (on HRT). I started having palpitations, ectopic beats around 2 years ago and had a suspected SVT

Uncertain about Amiodarone and cardioversion
I've been in AF since mid November 2022 having previously had only the odd episode of no more than 6 hours. All started after the C virus vaccine and then after the boosters. I consulted a private EP and he has prescribed Amiodarone followed by cardioversion. Presumably that will lead on to ablation

Anxiety and A-Fib
I had anxiety over getting a Cochlear Implant done. I was taking Atarax on top of Zyrtec which causes QT Elongation. So I was diagnosed with AFIB and sent to the ER. Prescribed Metoprolol and a 81 mg aspirin. I didn't take the Metoprolol because it was on a Recall list by the FDA for 3 months as it

An interesting thought
I have had Afib paroxysmal on and off for 10 years. I now take 2.5 mg Bisoprolol each morning and have since had no Afib attacks or wobbles. However, my Apple watch always says I have Afib, and any time I have an ECG it says I have Afib. Yet I appear fit as a flea, can do manual jobs and work, etc

pacemaker and a fib
I have had paroxysmal A Fib since 2001. In recent times I developed sick sinus syndrome and long pauses. In March this year I was given a dual chamber pacemaker. I have had no A Fib episodes since until this morning when I woke up with it thumping away. Disappointing but I suppose it had to happen

ECG Flappy gaps?
Hi awesome people, This is an ECG taken on my iWatch on waking this morning - still laying flat in bed. I’m currently in yet [i]another[/i] Amiodarone-suppressed episode of PAF. Currently approx 36 hours. At least the Amio is keeping the heart rate lower, but I seem to be getting more episodes

Three months post surgery
I had a mastectomy three months ago. Overall it’s gone very well. However yesterday I started to feel incredibly cold and could not get warm. Took my temperature and it was 37.9. I still have some fluid around the scar but it’s manageable. However, now the fluid is firmer and it’s throbbing. It

A-Fid
5 years ago I was rushed to hospital with 100 lbs of fuild in my chest, around my lungs, heart, stomach and just rest all over me. I was diagnosed with A Fid. I am on Eliquis, beta blockers, lasix. In 5 years never had another episode. Could have been the fluid?

Is flecainide a good drug?
I have been very low profile of late because I had nearly two years free of AF - then it came back last Wednesday with a vengeance and refused to go away... This resulted in a trip to the doctor's and then A&E on Thursday because the rate was quite high, blipping up to 150+ bpm. To cut a long story

Afib and heart failure
Does afib always lead to heart failure?I have just had a medication review with a specialist who works with our GP surgery and doctors. He claims that any afib present leads to heart failure between 1 and 20% in the early stages. This is frightening. My afib episodes are very symptomatic and come around

Advice on upcoming holiday
Hi everyone, I am looking for advice.I have paroxysmal afib with episodes coming roughly every 4 months (I've never yet discovered the trigger and my EP says I probably never will). Anyway, I am extremely symptomatic with heart rate jumping between 80 ish to 150 ish lasting around 30 hours before reverting

changing pattern
my AF first started about 5 yrs ago, on holiday in france and they diagnosed it as Atrial Flutter. when I got home and saw a cardiologist, she reccomended ablation, which i had, I then had 2 yrs without any problems. just as we were moving to Ireland I had another episode, so back to A&E ( i Ireland)
