Atrial Fibrillation or not?
My query is do I have Atrial Fibrillation or should it be named something else. I have a normal sinus rhythm but I am tachycardic and the heart rate spikes at times. I have frequent ectopic beats but have been advised they are of no concern. Just been prescribed 1.25mg of Bisoprolol.

Heat and afib
In March I passed out a couple times, the 2nd time, I was fortunate to be already hospitalized with rapid afib following my first syncope. I went into sustained vtach@ heart rate 275 and went into cardiac arrest. I now have a pace maker/defibrilator because my resting heart rate is 50. I take Sotalol

I have hope
I am new and this is my first post. I had breast cancer 11 years ago at the age of 64. It was caught very early by routine mammogram and the surgeon was just going to remove the very small lump. I said I would feel safer if I had a mastectomy, and he agreed to that. Now the cancer has come back, this

Diltiazem purpose???
Hi everyone, hope someone out there can answer my question. I don’t have AFib but I notice a lot of AFib sufferers take Diltiazem. I’ve been prescribed it to use alongside bisoprolol to help me wean off it as I’m struggling. Not sure how it will help as I don’t have high blood pressure, and from what

Scans and questions
I have a question about CT scan results. I was diagnosed with MBC a year ago after being 5 years clear of breast cancer. I'm on Ibrance 125 mg and Faslodex shots. The cancer had spread to both sides of my neck, my sternum, and lung. I had a PET scan in January and the tumors had shrunk in my neck

Senokot?
Hi All, looking for advice, saw GP yesterday about worsening constipation. He said to use Senokot, buy from a pharmacy. I read the patient information leaflet which says do not take if you have a heart condition. Rang the surgery for advice, they said they'd ask the GP and ring back but didn't Has

PMR and heart disease?
Hello, Question about PMR and heart palpitations. I am wondering if any of you have experienced arythmias? I realize that they can be quite benign, but something just doesn't feel right. I read in a pubmed study ( I think) that people with PMR have a 2.5 x greater risk for a vascular event than matched

Ablation 3 months update, exercise, food and ectopics
Hi all I really benefitted form the testimonials on this webpage, so I wanted to update my case study.. Today it is exactly 3 month since my ablation, done for afib and flutter. Interestingly they found the flutter during the procedure, during a 'test run'. They have dealt with it at the same time.

Metoprolol
I have been on Digoxin, Flecainide and Sotalol without any good results but lots of side negative effects. New Cardiologist (an AP) has directed me to stop Flecainide and Sotalol and take Metoprolol instead... I'm not feeling much better, still on AF most of the time and a feeling of fainting. Any comment

Most of time was spent pre and post procedure in the recovery room and the next room where they give you T or coffee + biscuits, then into discharge room. I was in that room over an hour as I was in q waiting

Excercise Watch
I know you are all aware of how we can check our heart rate with an exercise watch and do so to make sure we are keeping our heart rate down if exercising or doing something that increases our heart rate.

Afib/Irregular heart rate.
I previously had OHS twice to fix an aneurysm and developed Afib and tachycardia afterwards. Was originally on amiodarone and since a small dose of bisoprolol. That was April 2019. I've had no issues since. Recently in May had surgery again for a Cranial CSF Leak. More surgery planned for that as it

Switching from Eliquis to a one a day 325mg Aspirin
Hi guys, just curious, Has anybody been on Eliquis and then changed to one aspirin 325 mg a day instead? I was diagnosed with Afib in 2018 but have maybe one episode a year so my Dr. told me to switch from Eliquis to one 325mg aspirin a day. I am concerned that the aspirin won’t thin my blood enough
