Anxiety with Afib
Hi have had Afib episodes for 20 years, usually only for couple of hours, helped by metoprolol. I was in Resus overnight for thelast episode, had 3 different IV beta blockers, to no avail, and was finally given oral Flecainide, which worked after 40 minutes, and prevented cardioversion.. That was

Is Atrial Fibrillation connected to the Thyroid?
I am wondering if through a change in thyroid hormone type and dosage one can modify or cure Atrial Fibrillation? Several here have mentioned that irregular heartbeat or palpitations have decreased with the use of T3, however, I don't recall reading anything about adjustments in hormone replacement

In afib day after ablation
I just had a cryo ablation 4 days ago. I woke up from the procedure in afib. I went back in rhythm but the next day afib started again and continued for 3 days. Is this normal or did it not work? I have also been having sulfur burps and diarrhea. I’m 36years old… every dr I’ve seen has never seen afib

Heart having a funny few minutes!
Anyone know what this dip means on the ecg? I am not concerned about the bradycardia as I take meds. But could really feel this beat happening and felt weird. Different from a fib.

heatstroke / exhaustion?
Doing very well up to 2 days ago, on 7.5 mgs. I am going to a wedding tomorrow - but appear to have heatstroke from a very hot, long walk in Greece. Nausea, headache, dizziness - all too familiar in a way. It hasnt gone off after 2 days. Would you increase the pred temporarily (fearing this would be

Any Strategies For Controlling Blood Sugar While Taking Thyroid Meds
I am not a diabetic. Before having my thyroidectomy my glucose levels never rose above 82. Controlling by morning blood sugars have been especially difficult, maybe due to taking the meds at 6am while the "Dawn Effect" is still present. Do anyone exercise in the mornings before taking their meds

Using a Heart Rate monitor chest strap after Ablation
Has anyone used a HRM chest strap after a pvi ablation and had strange readings even though a manual pulse check is regular and in control? I was wondering if the strap picks up the electrical activity still going on in the Pulmonary Veins but cant get past the ablation sites into the heart to cause

Possible AF
Last Sunday I had a dreadful accident. I either slipped or tripped in the kitchen. I had a kettle full of boiling water in my hand at the time. The result was that I badly scalded my leg and was taken by ambulance to my nearest A&E hospital which is 20 plus miles away. Whilst enroute the paramedics did

Solatol
Hi all. After a long uncomfortable time with AFib I saw a private cardiologist who prescribed Solatol 2x80 per day. It’s early days as I’ve just begun but a couple oh hours after taking first one I’m in AFib with HR 102. I stopped Bisoprolol and digoxin yesterday. Does it take a while for Solatol to

Elevated TSH despite its suppression
I had papillary thyroid cancer 4 years ago with local lymph node metastases. I had a complete thyroidectomy and underwent radio iodine therapy. I take a high dose of T4 and normally my TSH level is 0.5 or below. In two recent blood tests my TSH was around 6mcUI/ml, just above and below, and T4 was at

Partial thyroidectomy
I had a

Comments about Metropolol
I don’t read much mentioned about Metropolol. I have been prescribed Eliquis and Metropolol for AFib and wonder why the majority of afibers are not taking this combination. I would love to read comments about especially the drug Metropolol! And why do I read the mention of some wanting to get off Eliquis

On NDT and my TSH in a range
I just want to ask someone if it is common for someone taking NDT to have TSH in a range? I had total thyroidectomy in 2017. I didn't feel well on Levo that's why I switched to NDT. Blood taken early in the morning , last dose of NDT 11 hours before blood test. 3 March 2022: TSH-0.48 (0.3-4.20) FT4

To Kardia or not to Kardia............
Hello everyone, although I have replied to other people’s posts, this is the first question I’ve asked for myself. Knowing that many of you use Kardia’s, I’m hoping you can help me to make up my mind over a possible upgrade to the 6L version. First a bit of background; I was diagnosed with AF in late
