Premature atrial contractions (PAC) and Premature ventricular contractions (PVC). Same triggers as Afib?
Just curious what causes PAC's and PVC's to vary so widely. Last night over an 8 hour period I had 2,608 PAC's and 1,237 PVC's, which was much higher then usual. My Afib burden is very low, each time only lasting 20 seconds and not as bothersome. The night before for the same period I only had 276

Should I give up taking Amiodarone
I had a cardioversion last May and was delighted that it worked first time. I took 100mg Amiodarone daily until November when I slipped into AFib again. I did a 3 per day 200mg amiodarone for one week, 2 per day and then 1 per day and this hasn't sorted it. My resting pulse is 75-80 (whereas normally

Eliquis and CBD gummy’s
I am taking 5 mg of Eliquis two times a day. I started taking 20 mg of CBD Gummies which has helped my mood and pain immensely. I did some research and read that you should not take CBD with Eliquis as it can be very dangerous causing an overdose of Eliquis. Has anyone here tried taking CBD with Eliquis

tiredness
Hi, I could do with seeing a private endocrinologist as I suffer with low iron and my doctor hasn't looked into why this is. I had a total thyroidectomy in 2004, for the last few years I have felt tired and a bit low because of feeling tired. Does anyone know how I can find a good private endocrinologist

Pluvicto increases radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) before chemo

Never ending atrial flutter/afib
Hi sorry me again. My husband is back in afib/flutter and he is now being loaded with amiodarone for yet another cardioversion. He is permanently breathless and always exhausted. He will have the procedure again in January we hope, depending on the waiting list. In the past this drug has pretty much

More shocking news
Latest diagnosis. After been diagnosed with A fib after an emergency visit to hospital 6 weeks ago I was put on beta blockers and blood anticoagulant. After experiencing months of breathlessness. Thought I had a chest infection. No improvement! This appointment with the cardiologist I had an echocardiogram

Vagus Nerve and Afib Questions
Folks, Can I test out a few elements of my understanding of the vagus nerve and vagally induced Afib with any of you that understand it better than I do please? 1. Vagally induced Afib is triggered by an over-active or over-stimulated vagus nerve, which in a sense means that you are too calm or relaxed

4 weeks after Pfizer Biotech vaccine
Up until 4 weeks ago I was in control of my afib with life style changes and Flecainide, then I had a COVID booster vaccine and it's all gone out of the window. For a few days immediately after the vaccine I was a little poorly and my heart readings were all over the shop. Since then I have had periods

update on speaking with nurse.
So I had to do fibricheck for a week for Nurse and apart from one bad episode of AFIB all the others are eptopics. I’ve upped my Bisoprolol for now if that don’t work then I have to up the flecainide. That’s the one I don’t want to up. I have been given the all clear to get back to my HGV job so that

Somewhat in limbo
Hi all I've been under investigation for AF for a couple of months now. (A previous post goes into the details a bit, but TL;DR: I'm a mid-life crisis endurance runner with no-symptom atrial fibrillation and flutter.) Since that post, the echocardiogram ordered by my GP was conducted. The cardiologist

Anyone with heart scar tissue?
I have been in the Afib forum for a year and half. Thanks to what I learned in this wonderful forum, I made some lifestyle adjustmemts that kept me out of Afib. I found out I had some scar tissue after a heart MRI following a sustained ventricular tachycardia cardiac arrest in 2021, I am on beta blocker

Severe Acid Reflux and Thyroidectomy
For the past 2 years I have suffered from LPR, silent acid reflux, which makes it difficult to swallow food and I always feel like there is a lump in my throat. I am allergic to both Methimazole and PTU and will eventually have to have a TT. Has anyone else gone through something similar? I am so

So now I'm a bit scared.
I posted about deciding to do an ablation consult the other day, I have that scheduled for Dec 30th. Well that evening the 23rd I had a new arrhythmia show up. I sent it to Kardia clinician review, and they said it was ventricular tachycardia. The sort of rhythm that when sustained can lead to ventricular

Afib worse than before ablation
I had the most glorious day in 3 years on the 4th day after my first ablation, which the doc said went great. The first three days were tougher because I had a sort throat, fever, then a migraine. But on day 4 I felt incredible…until about 9:30pm when my watch told me I was in afib again. And then
