Thyroidectomy
Hi I am due to have my thyroid removed as I have a multi nodular goitre. I do not have any issues with my thyroid function so am just wondering whether living with thyroxine is as simple as just taking a tablet , as my surgeon says?

Heart rate in afib and when to go to ER or A&E
Sitting down watching tv and I felt in my chest I was trying to go into afib, so I grabbed my trusty oximeter and put it on and watched HR go down from 80s to 70s to 60s to 50s to 40s to a reading of 37 HR. Freaked me out so I got another oximeter different manufacturer and put it on and it read 37.

What Helps You Stay Awake During Daytime
My husband has stage 4 CRPC and has a fib so he cannot drink caffeinated coffee so how does he stay awake during the day? This is especially embarrassing during church. Any suggestions that have worked for others are appreciated.

Thyroid blood results
I had a total thyroidectomy in December last year due to a large goitre. No medication prescribed prior to the operation. Currently on 150 mg of Levo. Blood results after 4 weeks on medication TSH serum 0.05 T4 level 21. What does this mean. I had repeat blood done last week awaiting results.

Post Ablation Diagnosis
I have been very fortunate and had my Afib ablation in Leicester in May. I had excellent treatment with very minimal side effects from the procedure and am back doing exercise and best of all, no episodes of Afib - so all very positive even though it is very early days. My follow up appointment is in

Sleep and Afib
As predicted my occasional episodes of A Fib which began in 2007 has recently become more of a problem. They are now presenting differently tho. My resting heart beat is about 60bpm and whilst in Afib they are now usually 60 to 75, only rising further when I am moving about. My question is can anyone

AF - Sudden Increase To Every Night
I occasionally get a very slight twinge or spasm in my heart during some mild exertion - a gentle bike ride or lifting the hoover for example. This often kicks off an AF bout the following night. I had the twinge thing on a ride a couple of weeks ago which caused an 11 hour bout of AF, and since then

Blood pressure warning
More fun and frolics. Before I went to pamper myself in Montenegro (swimming in the sea, lounging on the Cabana) I checked my blood pressure which I do regularly and noticed a little warning sign like a heart next to my diastolic. The literature said to seek advice so I asked him in doors and he casually

Smart watch blood pressure function
I love the ECG function on my Galaxy watch and the blood pressure until I noticed the instruction not to use if on meds etc. I don't understand why it's safe for Afib but not for BP. Can anyone explain please?

afib related to drop in blood pressure
last week I had an extreme drop in blood pressure 87/50 and was unable to stand up or even sit up. Was taken to the hospital. Diagnosed with pneumonia and told that infection can sometimes cause drop in blood pressure particularly because of my a fib. It seems that because the lungs are so closely
