PAF to permanent AF
I was diagnosed with PAF some 10 years ago and for most of this time AF episodes have been brief and infrequent. In some cases only every few years and never lasting more than a few hours. However recently episodes have been more frequent and my latest ‘attack’ has now been going for 3 weeks. I take

New to Site after Shock Diagnosis of AF
I would like advice from those on the forum with similar experiences of the AF journey. I am newly diagnosed and feeling pretty scared. In particular I'd like to know how long it took most people to get the right meds and dosages. I was started on Bisoprolol 2.5mg but because I was still symptomatic

New to Afib - how to describe symptoms?
Hello. I'm new to Afib (diagnosed Paroxysmal AF November) and new to the forum. It's wonderful to read all the support, care and information here - what a find! I'm awaiting a 7 day monitoring in Feb. Meanwhile doing my research and still have so many questions! Main symptoms at the moment are raised

Something new for bank holiday
Suddenly felt heart going funny and thought I was about to go into Afib. Checked with kardia after a few minutes and it said tachycardia. Over the last 2 hours I’ve fluctuated between brief Afib attacks (about 4 times), all in the mid 80 hr for only a few minutes with tachycardia 112-120 the rest of

post ablation questions/reassurance
Hey all! Just had a catheter ablation for my SVT. It was AVNRT and very close to the av node. Had some palpitations post surgery but hoping that's part of recovery. Feeling anxious for sure and fatigued by the evening but hoping it feels all OK soon. It's been just a week

Solgar Hawthorn Berry Capsules ? Has anybody taken these ?
Does anybody take any of these capsules? I would really like to hear from people, as to how the capsules helped them and how they got on with them ? I recently started to take the Solgar 484mg Berry Powder . They stopped my symptoms immediately. Ie:- Palpitations, (mostly in the night), occasional fast

Flecainide and Digoxin
My first post after lurking a good while and sorry if it is over long, I am very confused at present, being diagnosed has been such a shock. In feb 2022 I spent 3 days in hospital with Afib and high blood pressure (180/104) no symptoms or pain etc, discharged with bisoprolol, ramipril and rivaroxaban

Confused again. Help with latest readings please
I had a thyroidectomy 2 years ago. I also have D102 variant. I started T3 in November 21 as I struggled to get well and bloods indicated poor conversion. I was prescribed 20mg T3 to take in 2 10mg doses and 100mg Levo. I felt a bit better but not totally and results were T3 5.3 59% hours n range,

Amyloidosis
Has anyone been diagnosed with Amyloidosis of the heart which is causing Afib permanently? How are they being treated, etc?

Thank you 😊
Hello, I have just discovered this page and have just read so many of your posts about Afib. I was diagnosed in November with persistent Afib, I'm 40. It was a huge shock and I've been feeling very alone despite excellent support around me from family, friends and work colleagues. I'm learning to

Trelstar Mixject
I received an insurance denial today for Trelstar Mixject. I was to have an Eligard shot in early December, but Dr office called the day before to reschedule for January 3rd. I was never told that they wanted to take me off Eligard, and why would they change if it is working? Mainly, I have never

Silent Arterial Fibrillation in a73 year old male with a normal heart rate (between 75-85 generally). Unfortunately it's permanent! Seeking advice from others in this same boat for thoughts of what to do or what they are doing/planning on as a treatment ? One specialist say Ablation. The next

Newbie first post on here.
Morning all, hope everyone is well and warm this cold Sunday morning. Just thought I'd introduce myself as I've just recently joined the forum but I'm also on the bhf and health unlocked site too so here's a brief outline of my journey so far. I've been under the cardiologist for 3 years now with ectopics

my List of References recommending GP's keep TSH lower in range : feel free to add any others you have in replies.
These references all recommend GP's keep TSH between 0.4/ 0.5 and 2/2.5 in patients on levo. Some were taken directly from GP update sources ,one was written specifically for GP's by Specialist registrars in cardiology and endocrinology , and one is from the 2023 consensus statement from leading endocrinologists

cardiac ablation
my cardiologist had recommended an ablation a year ago but I choose to wait. I’ve had very few episodes on Flecinide and Eliquis. Now he’s saying my heart rate is getting too low and we need to revisit having the ablation. I’m looking for feedback from those who have had the procedure.

Back in hospital with fast atrial flutter.
I’m in my local hospital with atrial flutter (and some good old AF) at about 150 bpm (following a bypass about a week ago). This seems to switch on when I sit up in bed or get out of bed. Blood pressure is low at 94/59. It’s too dangerous to cardiovert at the moment. They’ve increased the Bisoprolol

New Here — Most Recent Arrhythmia
Hi, all — I initially posted this to the Afib Forum but just found this group, which seems more appropriate. I was experiencing episodes of tachycardia sometimes lasting up to a half hour or so. Being a non-cardiologist, my first thought was Afib and, indeed, that’s what my Apple Watch said. I ended
