Return of the Duck - Revenge of the Beak
Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your ears ............ not literally as that could get rather messy. I'm sure that you have all missed me, like a verruca. Apologies for my absence but its been an eventful few weeks, to say the least. On my last post a few weeks ago, I mentioned that I was a bit

Ablation for a 78 yom
I am a 78 Tom. Healthy other than cardio issues of afib. In 2017 I had an ablation which worked for two years. Then sporadic AF for a year. This year (2021) AF back with pulse rate of 162. The controlling med, Amiodarone was prescribed for six months. With the AF I had premature ventricular contractions

Sparatic bp and hb
Crazy blood pressure and sparatic heartbeat from 60 to 110. Blood pressure at 84/62 sometimes as well as afib sometimes. It seems my problems are coming back somewhat after 3 ablations and a period of 3 yrs of very mild afib recently Although my bp has been usually at 122/78 most times. The bp is worrisome

I put up a link on anticoagulants that I found on the Medscape site. It is a really good one; actually one that doctors complete for education credits. Each of us can do it too and the information is really an eye opener. It makes one understand just how varied a doctor's advice can be. This information

Losing hope after ablation and afib episodes
Hey guys, here I am again worrying. My boyfriends ablation was almost 8 weeks ago and for the first two to three weeks there was no afib at all. In the weeks after though, episodes of afib (though with a lower heart rate than before) occurred very regularly. And now we are almost back to what it was

Diet and Afib
I’m reading a lot about the benefits of a plant based, low sugar diet on Afib. I’m not overweight but I’ll admit my 5 a day has only been a pipe dream most days. Since I was diagnosed a fortnight ago, I’ve cut out all sugar, all caffeine and any artificial sweeteners. Anything with an E number has gone

Doctor checkup yesterday
After being forgotten in the exam room ...1 hour later nurse had to locate the doctor, who wasn't even in the building...... anyway, found that my echo and blood work to be very good. I was told...and I kind of thought this as well, that what I was feeling in my chest were pvcs...not Afib. Not concerned

Confused- ablate or not
Well, after a 3rd visit to a cardiologist (always a different one) since being diagnosed with lone afib a few years ago, I’m confused! My episodes are now more frequent and last longer. My cardiologist recommended I don’t go down the ablate route but instead keep trying meds to control it. My heart

Mastectomy or not?
Hi all, this is my first post. Have had OC for 19 months and I have also tested positive for the brca 2 gene. I think that I want to go for a preventative double mastectomy but I am dithering. I havent even mentioned this to my doctor but I am of the opinion that I should try and help myself as much

So who is looking after me…….
I was under the care of a locus cardiologist as well as the EP. The EP diagnosed atrial tachycardia rather than atrial fibrillation along with multifocal ventricular ectopics. Further echocardiogram, lung function and another 24 hour tape were requested to be done here by my local cardiologist. However

TV Advert for Kardia
Slowly flicking through channels on the TV but not paying much attention to channel numbers an advert being shown on one channel stopped me, (for a few seconds only, didn’t want to see or hear) from moving further up the channel list. It was an advert for Kardia and splashed across the screen were words
