A Happy Anniversary
Dear AFA forum family. Isn't life wonderful? I joined the AFA forum some four years ago and had it not been for chance encounters, who knows where I would be today. It started with an AFA post titled "Tim' Story". At the time of his post (several years ago) Tim was 55 and his story mirrored my own

Coping with NSR in the shadow of Afib - tips please!
Something of a big question this, but one I’m grappling with in my life right now. Apart from a month or two early on of feeling an occasional erratic heartbeat, my experience of Afib has been almost entirely persistent. So I have not experienced the episodes of sudden arrhythmias that paroxysmal Afib

Flare! What was the last dose that I felt good at?
Good evening/ good morning all! After I was diagnosed with PMR on 6/16/22, I was given generous and kind advice from the knowledge and experiences of PMRpro, Dorset Lady as well as many others. Well, I’ve hit a bump in the road and before I talk to the rheumatologist I want to gather intelligence from

Palpitations worse after ablation
Good evening everyone, I’m really struggling after my catheter ablation 10 days ago. The palpitations and ectopics I’m experiencing are awful. So different to the palpitations I was having before my ablation. They are very erratic. I have Dilated Cardiomyopathy and AVNRT. I know it’s early days

Afib with rvr after vomiting
i wrote this on the Afib forum Hi, I am a fit 56 year old who had a migraine, threw up and ended up with afib with rvr and a sustained pulse of over 150 for 40 hours. Usual resting pulse is low 50s. BMI is 22. This potentially happened once before 10 years ago under the same circumstances but it righted

under medicated
hi I am a 63 year old lady. I was diagnosed with over active thyroid at 18. Ended up having radioactive treatment at 24 then at 28 a complete thyroidectomy. Have been on thyroxine since then - at one point was prescribed the expensive one ( can’t remember the name ) my gp stopped that as too expensive

Afib and A&E - Update
Hi all, My afib came back around 3 am and it's still here after 7 h. I came to A&E, they did a chest scan and blood and I'm waiting for response. I'm psychologically destroyed by this and I fear they won't do anything because I don't have high rate, leaving me for months in this again waiting for the

Metropolo
I take 25 mg of Metropolo twice a day! I get short of breath when I do house work , my heart rate is in the 90's because I am in AFIB all the time! They are trying to control my blood pressure and pulse with this medication ! Does other people have this problem?

Woke up in Afib
I thought the cardio version last episode would have been the end to this. But nope , like clockwork I was due. I have been journaling and keep track of how I feel. I usually see a dip in HR a few days to a week before ba episode. I seem to have them every 6/8 weeks with one exception in last year of

Complications of Operations with AFIB
Just read a report stating Patients with preexisting atrial fibrillation (AF) have a 31% increased risk of death within 30 days after noncardiac surgery compared with matched patients without AF. I guess my hip operation being cancelled would have been easier to accept if this had been explained

liothyronine supply
I have been on liothyronine for 10 years now following a thyroidectomy due to Graves’ disease. My local health trust are happy to prescribe this medication for me - but currently are unable to source a supply. Is anyone else in this situation? And would anyone be able to direct me towards a supplier

24 hour monitor
My paroxysmal AF was not picked up on a 24 hour monitor. I was checked a couple of times over a 5 year timespan and told that I just had lots of ectopics. Finally, when it became more severe the GP eventually relented and booked me in for a seven day monitor whcich picked up the atrial fibrillation

Tall tales
New Scientist, 11th November edition (p18) has an interesting article. Researchers at Uni of Bristol examined records of 454,000 adults and found that "... taller people have a greater risk of having irregular heart rate." Further, that those "... taller than average at age 10 were more likely as an

bisoprolol reduction
Thank you everyone for your replies. After my visit to A and E on Sunday the doctor told me to take an additional 1.25mg of bisoprolol for 3 days so now taking 2.50mg per day. I think I was a little naive but trusted the hospital to reduce to 1.25 after my cardioversion he said my heart rate was

Paroxysmal and permanent Afib
Does anybody know when paroxysmal Afib becomes permanent? I was diagnosed with paroxysmal Afib towards the end of 2022, after I had been fitted with a Linq loop recorder. I was only ever having short episodes lasting up to 8 hours, then on 13th October just gone I started with an episode which is still

Covid vax and AFIB
just as an FYI, I had a Covid vaccination (Pfizer) a couple of days ago and I developed AFIB within a few hours. It did resolve itself overnight after I took extra metoprolol.
