Thyroidectomy
A year ago I had total thyroidectomy and I obviously rely on Levothyroxine 125 mcg. Next Monday I'm due to have a gastroscopy and colonoscopy because of my out of range full blood count and blood in my stool. My question here is how am I to decide when to take my Levo and then my other BP tablets giving

Paroxysmal Afib affecting sleep
Just when I was beginning to relax the good old afib hit me like a hammer at 5am Monday morning waking me with a jolt. I had a very stressful weekend with relationships out of control with my family so I suppose I half expected it. Unfortunately, I am very symptomatic and my episodes go on for around

Desperate for help

Ok! Tried to lie down straight and I couldn’t do it!? What can be done in order to get me ready for the

Ablation for ventricular tachycardia
When I've posted here before over the last 8 years it has been about my own fairly benign AF, which needed a second cardioversion a few months ago. This time, I'd welcome your advice for my wife, who has patiently put up with my moans and groans, and herself went into ventricular tachycardia a couple

Ectopics one after the other
Hi there, I hope it's ok to join? I've posted on here before on the British Heart Foundation but I wondered if anyone here could also help me. Very brief history, I am female, aged 47 and perimenopausal (on HRT). I started having palpitations, ectopic beats around 2 years ago and had a suspected SVT

Uncertain about Amiodarone and cardioversion
I've been in AF since mid November 2022 having previously had only the odd episode of no more than 6 hours. All started after the C virus vaccine and then after the boosters. I consulted a private EP and he has prescribed Amiodarone followed by cardioversion. Presumably that will lead on to ablation

Anxiety and A-Fib
I had anxiety over getting a Cochlear Implant done. I was taking Atarax on top of Zyrtec which causes QT Elongation. So I was diagnosed with AFIB and sent to the ER. Prescribed Metoprolol and a 81 mg aspirin. I didn't take the Metoprolol because it was on a Recall list by the FDA for 3 months as it

How relevant is TSH when you have had a total thyroidectomy?
Hello everyone, Is TSH relevant at all if you have no thyroid?For someone on levothyroxine only are T4 and T3 the measure of optimum dose.Thankyou.

An interesting thought
I have had Afib paroxysmal on and off for 10 years. I now take 2.5 mg Bisoprolol each morning and have since had no Afib attacks or wobbles. However, my Apple watch always says I have Afib, and any time I have an ECG it says I have Afib. Yet I appear fit as a flea, can do manual jobs and work, etc

Dehydration Issue?
I have a question that I have not seen anyone talk about. I had my thyroid removed a couple of years ago and have a serious problem with t4 conversion. Since the surgery I have had episodes in which I fail rapidly and end up almost comatose at the emergency room. When things start going badly I loose

Hair loss
hi, I had a complete thyroidectomy in August of this year. I’ve been on levothyroxine and Synthroid. Today I began taking Armour. I have been losing a massive amount of hair. Has anyone shared this side effect and have suggestions for regrowth? Please tell me this awful side effect doesn’t last! Also

pacemaker and a fib
I have had paroxysmal A Fib since 2001. In recent times I developed sick sinus syndrome and long pauses. In March this year I was given a dual chamber pacemaker. I have had no A Fib episodes since until this morning when I woke up with it thumping away. Disappointing but I suppose it had to happen

High PTH through t3?
Hello Friends, Since Christmas I had Symptoms like headache, lack of concentration , muscle and bone pain etc. worsen and had today an Endo appointment. Since about 5 years I suspect having primary hyperparathyroidism since my HPT and Calcium are consistently both high or high normal. My bones have

ECG Flappy gaps?
Hi awesome people, This is an ECG taken on my iWatch on waking this morning - still laying flat in bed. I’m currently in yet [i]another[/i] Amiodarone-suppressed episode of PAF. Currently approx 36 hours. At least the Amio is keeping the heart rate lower, but I seem to be getting more episodes

A-Fid
5 years ago I was rushed to hospital with 100 lbs of fuild in my chest, around my lungs, heart, stomach and just rest all over me. I was diagnosed with A Fid. I am on Eliquis, beta blockers, lasix. In 5 years never had another episode. Could have been the fluid?

Is flecainide a good drug?
I have been very low profile of late because I had nearly two years free of AF - then it came back last Wednesday with a vengeance and refused to go away... This resulted in a trip to the doctor's and then A&E on Thursday because the rate was quite high, blipping up to 150+ bpm. To cut a long story
