Do you know where your nearest defibrillator is located?
Having access to a defibrillator really can make a difference. When CPR chest compressions and a defibrillator are used together, the chances of survival from SCA increase from 9% to 50%.

Arrhythmia after open heart surgery - any others with similiar experiences?
Hi there, I'm new to this forum and looking forward to learning from you all. 8 weeks ago I had open heart surgey to correct a large atrial septal defect (hole in the heart). It was diagnosed at Christmas. Prior to this I had no cardiac symptoms at all - I was power lifting in the gym, cycling a 20km

Amiodarone
I just wanted to clear up such negative responses to amiodarone. What is the mortality rate for amiodarone? In unadjusted analysis, amiodarone recipients had a slightly higher risk of death compared to non-recipients in the full cohort (87 vs 73 deaths per 1,000 person-years; P<0.001) but not in the

Very happy to hit 2 year mark from last AFIB incident. I was 48 when I had my first episode which terrified me, and the second episode was 9 months later. Both resolved on their own. I started working on lifestyle changes from the first incident. I focused on dropping milk from my diet and keeping

AFib and Blood Pressure
Is there a correlation or causation or no link between Afib and high blood pressure? I had sudden occurrence of persistent AF and high BP. My BP had always been well within the normal range. Thank you for any info you can provide. I know it will be thoughtful and I understand you are not physicians

Too much to take in!
A lot going on with no answers. Firstly having been diagnosed with AF in May, I had my fourth episode whilst in France a couple of weeks ago. Previous to that I was asked whether I would take part in the DOCCLA system which is an extension of a hospital ward apparently where they monitor you at home

Newly diagnosed AFib 40 year old
Hello everyone, last week I was diagnosed with persistent afib with lbbb and I'm terrified. I've been discharged with a bag of meds (bisoprolol, flecanide and rivaroxaban) and on the list for an ablation. I haven't been given much info and investigated everything myself. I just feel utterly depressed
