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

STEP ONE OF MY THIRD CLINICAL TRIAL huCAR-T19 IL-18
With the ink barely dry on my clinical trial consent forms, it was back up to Penn Medicine for my blood collection. First stop was the radiology dept to have a neck catheter installed, I decided against the arm extraction method, as it limits your mobility during the procedure. Cath installation complete

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

VIKTORIA-1 CLINICAL TRIAL
Happy Friday, everyone!! It’s a beautiful day to be alive!!! Has anyone here been offered this trial? I’ve been on letrozole, Ibrance and Xgeva for a year and it appears it’s not doing its job any longer. I will know more after scans next week. If not, are you on a clinical trial? I’m feeling like

Severe bruising
I have been taking Acalabrutinib in a clinical trial for three years achieving excellent results. A few days back I tripped over uneven paving while enjoying my daily walk. I hit the concrete hard. Fortunately no broken bones. By that evening a nasty bruise had appeared on my right side and abdomen.

Cost of PSMA scan in US
So I was surprised recently about the cost of my PSMA scan here in the US. $3456 I was used to costs in the $16,000 range for Choline scan. Paid $2650 or so for the UCLA clinical trial back in 2017. I checked and also found a place in Vancouver BC that would treat scan US patients for about 3400 Canadian

Hello friends, I had planned on updating everyone much sooner, but life got in the way a bit. Last I wrote, I had received my T-cells back on June 5, 2023. The first few days were totally uneventful.

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

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
