Amiodarone and bradycardia anyone?
I’m wondering if anyone has had the same experience as me. I’ve been on amiodarone for four months now and after the first two weeks of weird feelings it felt like a wonder drug - I had no a fib and hardly any ectopics. After a while I noticed that my resting heart rate was going lower (as measured by

Cardiologist Took me Off all Heart Medication. Can you share if you had bad side effects from your cardiologist stopping your Metropolol.
I had an ablation and ever since my blood pressure has been slightly high 140/70. Cardiologist put me on Metropolol for the last three years. Three weeks ago he had ultra sound and EKG performed then told me to stop taking Metropolol. I read where stopping Metropolol all at once can bringon bad health

Changing Episode Patterns
Have not posted for a good while but check in every day and learn a lot. I have PAF for 20 years. For 18 of those I would have one or two episodes a year - always self-converted. In 2020 I had a lot of stress from other health issues and lockdown because of Covid. I had episodes every 7 to 10 days.

New Arrhythmia while sleeping
Hello all, Over the last week, I've had a couple nights (last night included) where I would feel fluttering and almost a swoop of air up to my throat. It kept me up and lasted a couple hours. HR for the most part was steady, although there was an initial 10 minute period where it went up to 120 then

Random sternum chest pain and hoarseness after converting
Hello All, I was in an AFib event lasting 8 days early May. On the 3rd day I was given EKG and put on Eliquis and 50mg Metoprolol by my Primary. My HR was erratic and averaged 126 on EKG prior to medication. After medication it was averaging 115 at rest and lower at night sleeping (probably 80-110).

High heart rate after ablation procedure?? I am new to this community...
I had an ablation procedure on the 25th of June. Before the procedure my heart rate without medication was periodically from 90-130. Then I was prescribed Elequis, Metoprolol and propofenone. Those medications controlled the Afib 100%. Now after the Ablation procedure I had 1 week of normal but higher

Blood result - thoughts please
Several months back I started to develop symptoms of autoimmune thyroid problems. I was told that my TSH was normal December/January time). Later a nodule was found on the thyroid and as a result of this I had a partial thyroidectomy last week. Prior to the partial thyroidectomy I had bloods taken as

Tiredness
I walk my dog between 3 and 5 miles a day and do core exercises at the gym twice a week so I think I should have a fair amount of energy. But I don’t! I wake up tired, I have episodes of feeling really tired throughout the day and am likely to fall asleep if I read in the afternoon or when I’m watching

Exercise and medications for PAF
I've been on propafenone (150mg three times/day) and diltiazem for about 2 months now, and my PAF is now well controlled on these meds. I'm on the waiting list for an ablation and have been told it will be 6 months or so before I am likely to get a slot for the procedure. The big issue for me now is

Achieving correct levothyroxine dose after thyroidectomy and the benefits of liquid formula
Someone may well have already posted this but it highlights the difficulty in finding the correct dose of levothyroxine after thyroidectomy. It is a tricky problem. It's a different challenge than starting on a lowish dose and increasing over time with a slowly failing thyroid. Since the dose needs

Silicone or saline implants?
I am 60+ and had a double mastectomy and will have reconstruction. Looking for insight between saline or silicone implants. Is one more comfortable in the body? Any problems with either? If you had to choose again, which one would you choose and why? Thank you in advance

Gall Bladder Removal
Following an Ultrasound scan, it was identified that I have gallstones. I saw a surgeon yesterday who wants to take out the gall bladder. My pain is manageable at this stage and he has classed me as medium priority. My question is a simple one. Does anybody regret having the gall bladder taken out and
