Exercising on Amiodarone (and in Afib)
Hi - as the last throw of the dice I am taking Amiodarone (Arycor) until I get a cardioversion in January (will be my 7th on top of two ablations). So I am in a-fib - am trying to build my strength again - I do push ups, sit ups and other resistance training and alternate that with step ups on the garden

Does Amiodarone affect thyroid hormones & a load of other issues as well?
I’m going through hell at the moment, I have AF & been put on 200mg of Amiodarone in May this year. I also take Levothyroxine after having a total Thyroidectomy (thyroid removed) in 2013 for Graves Disease (overactive) I have not had any problems with my thyroid medication until I started the Amiodarone

Blood result - thoughts please
Later a nodule was found on the thyroid and as a result of this I had a
partial
thyroidectomy
last week. Prior to the
partial
thyroidectomy
I had bloods taken as shown in the photo. I was told my thyroid antibodies were 'borderline high' (whatever that means!) But haven't seen that result.

Partial Thyroidectomy/Sjogrens
Hi I had a
partial
thyroidectomy
in 2012 and I have gained about 4 stone. I have not felt well for years, always tired, continuously trying to lose weight and in pain. I also have been diagnosed in 2019 with Sjogrens Syndrome. My thyroid tests always come back in the ok bracket.

Persistent AF
HI all. I am taking 10mg Bisoprolol and Digoxin for persistent AF. I was due to have a cardioversion but as the meds seemed to be working I decided to swerve the cardioversion especially as I was told it was only a50/50 chance of success. My question is, should I take all the Bisoprolol at once?

Disopyramide and Vagal AF
I hope this post helps some of you out there. I’ve had PAF for around 15 years that has generally been under control with the use of Flecainide and ablation. 20 months ago I had to come off Flecainide following diagnosis of mild coronary heart disease in one of my arteries. I have been in and out of

Anyone else in afib 100% of the time?
After an ablation, several cardioversions and numerous medications, my pacemaker indicates that I have been in afib 100% of the time since last March. I'm on digoxin (which keeps me from feeling every skip and thump), metoprolol and Xarelto. I feel terrified for the future and discouraged that all

Afib ablation 3 months on.
Hey, So 3 months since I had my pvi ablation for afib. It's been a bumpy road and one I hadn't expected. Basically I spent 2.5 months going out of my mind with worry, exhausted and out of breath with a far worse case of afib than i went in with. 🙈 I really felt like my ability to exercise was gone forever

Volume of ectopics graph in the 17 weeks since my ablation
450 ecgs in 115 days using a KardiaMobil 6L. I ecg after exercise, when Kardia diagnosis is other than Normal Sinus Rhythm, if I am suspicious of even mild palpitations and also following previous ectopics (so if I have ectopics, I’ll do repeat ecgs until they’ve gone).

Mouth Taping
I have been a ' mouth breather' all my life . ( 70 yrs old now). I would say it became problematic as I entered by 50's. Waking up in the middle of the night with extreme dry mouth/throat. Then waking in the morning with a slight headache and low energy. I somehow landed on a 'mouth taping' site (

Here we go again!
It has been seven years since I posted, though I've been checking in on all of you! Amazing to see how things have changed since 2013 when I first followed this feed. I am most grateful for all the information as well as the sharing. I go in tomorrow for my 5th ablation - so for those of you who are

Update - Thyroid Test Results Requesting Dosage Increase
Update - After seeing my regular Endo last week and her refusal to add T3, I decided to use TeleDoc services of a Health Services that only treat the Thyroid. The doctor decided on his own without me requesting it that I have a conversion issue and prescribed 10 (mcg???) of Cytomel to my current

AFIB and PREDNISOLONE ANXIETY
Hi everyone, my gp suspects that i have GCA and wants me to go on 40mg of prednisolone straight away, he has also referred me to see a eye doctor on tuesday but having read the patient information leaflet, I am now terrified of taking them as i have A FIB and am on medication and it says they can

Another unexpected update
Hi everyone, I hope you're well. Thank you for all your compassionate responses to my last post - as always, I really appreciate everything you all have to say to me, even if I don't always respond beyond giving comments a 'heart'. I've had a strange update on my thyroid stuff since writing that post

AFib and Herbal Anxiety Meds (I’m new to all this!)
Hello! This is all still relatively new to me and this week my anxiety has been awful! I am on bisoprolol and wondered if it was ok to take Kalms whilst on these beta blockers? I don’t know if I can cope with the anxiety and horrible panicky feelings anymore and need something to help me. I feel so

I despair !!
The attached photo is what I got back from my GP after asking for Thyroid Function Test. I had a Private test done with Monitor My Health a while back (results below) which prompted me to contact my GP and ask to be retested and be given an increase up to 100mcg from 75mcg. They didn't even bother to

Feeling sad
Anyone else feel forgotten Having a moan, I was diagnosed three years ago with AFib , I am 73. This disease is the most awful thing and no one in the medical profession seems interested . I have no contact with my Consultant and my Doctors told me you have a chronic condition , learn to live with it.

A bit disheartened and confused
A little over 2 years ago at age 36 I experienced the first of what I came to find out was an Afib episode (of course, not until after being told I was just having panic attacks by some very unhelpful ER personnel). This was about a week after a doctor had prescribed me rizatriptan for headaches (

PAF changing experiences
Hi, I do not post very often but read the posts every day. I thought the Patients Day was excellent this year. Brief recap of my history:- I am 80 years young and have had PAF since January 2001. I would have one or two episodes a year until last year when I had them every couple of weeks. This year
