AFIB IS STRESSING ME OUT!!!
I have been a healthy athelete (boxer) until I was 56 years old, thats when I started having afib episodes to the point of mentally blacking out not passing out and then the journey began. Was put in the hospital for three weeks and put on at the time an experimental drug (dofetelide) which worked extremely

Fermented soya/Afib query
Does anyone have Afib? I'm looking for natural alternatives to blood thinners and have seen Nattokinase and Serrapeptase recommended. However Natto is made from soya which I know is a no-no for us but is fermented soya OK? I've just started taking NAC but am concerned that taking K2 (with my D3) will

Lactoferrin and anticoagulants
I am a 78 old male with PAF. I take Eliquis, Flecainide and Bisoprolol. In these times of Covid a GP suggested to my son, who has no PAF, to take Lactoferrin as a preventative. I would like to take it as well, but I cannot find information on interactions between Lactoferrin and anticoagulants. Has

Has anyone else had a steady heart rhythm but changing rate?
Morning people. Woke up this morning and feel pretty weak. Heart rate on watch seemed to be jumping around quite a bit so I thought may be glitching. Checked with good old finger on wrist and confirmed that heart rate seems to be speeding up and slowing down yet weirdly is in rhythm and doesn’t seem

Mastectomy wound
Hi ladies I had a left mastectomy in Jan 17, have had various treatments and have been on Cape for about 1 1/2 years but unfortunately it has stopped working and I am about to start Kadcyla IV. Recently a small wound has opened along line of my mastectomy scar, they have taken a biopsy as they think

Omicron & AF
Just wondering if anyone else has had omicron yet and how it may have affected them? I went to a super spreader wedding on 10/12 and by late on the 12/12 was aware of a scratchy throat starting. Next day I had a dull headache and slight throat issue, so knew it was omicron. LF not showing on 13th

Is my Kardia functioning normal ?
I purchased the Kardia 6 lead ecg recorder and every time I used it it says unclassified and it only detects atrial fibrillation which I know is not true because I’m in a persistent atrial flutter so I’m just wonder is there something defective because I keep seeing people with different message say

What is CHAD score?
2 months ago, I fainted 3 times in one day - 2 at home and the third time in the hospital lobby after being discharged from the ER. In the ER, they detected AFib and gave me cardizem intravenously. I spent the night in the hospital with a Holter monitor and no more episodes occurred. I was sent home

Still no direct answers
I had a fifth PET/CT scan this past May to check on any possible recurring breast cancer. All that the oncologist called and said was I had a right kidney stone that could possibly be blocking my kidney. (Turns out it was in my ureter and must’ve passed itself). I asked what else and he said that was

Only one Afib episode???
Hello everyone, I recently posted about having a flare up of ectopics whilst suffering from a cold/virus. (Update about that - they are lessening but still there) This flare up has got me thinking.... Quick history - I have suffered from 'heart flutters' since very young (I think I can remember complaining

Partial thyroidectomy
Please help. I had a partial thyroidectomy two years ago due to a goitre. Since then I never felt I recovered from the surgery. I've been diagnosed with CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome), after the GP trying to fob me off with anti depressants initatially, then to diagnose me with fibro and eventually

Diagnosed with AFIB 3 months ago & stressed out
I was just recently diagnosed with AFIB. I went to lay down and the heart just started banging in my chest like a bunch of marbles let loose. Went to the emergency room and after a cardioversion and 30 hours of monitoring the cardiologist released me. This came totally out of the blue....I am slim,

Exercising on Amiodarone (and in Afib)
Hi - as the last throw of the dice I am taking Amiodarone (Arycor) until I get a cardioversion in January (will be my 7th on top of two ablations). So I am in a-fib - am trying to build my strength again - I do push ups, sit ups and other resistance training and alternate that with step ups on the garden

Persistent AF
HI all. I am taking 10mg Bisoprolol and Digoxin for persistent AF. I was due to have a cardioversion but as the meds seemed to be working I decided to swerve the cardioversion especially as I was told it was only a50/50 chance of success. My question is, should I take all the Bisoprolol at once?

I hope this post helps some of you out there. I’ve had PAF for around 15 years that has generally been under control with the use of Flecainide and ablation. 20 months ago I had to come off Flecainide following diagnosis of mild coronary heart disease in one of my arteries. I have been in and out of
