Next week I am being fitted with a loop recorder. I'm really nervous and wondering if is painful and if it causes PVCs or PACs? Does anyone have zny experience or any advice?

chest twinges, pain in neck
Today I have been experiencing twinges in my chest just above my left breast with slight discomfort going across the breast, along with a dull aching feeling near the pulse in left side of my neck.

Covid Vax and Afib Facts
Hi Everyone. I have never had covid nor has my husband, and I finally got my heart rhythm problems fixed after two ablations. I just passed the six-month mark since my second ablation at Texas Cardiac Arrythmia. For the first time in 5 years since double pneumonia triggered the problem, I have been

LBBB, but my heart has zero damage or issues according to tests.
Hello, I was diagnosed with a LBBB about 5 or 6 years ago. At the time I was a heavy alcoholic and user of stimulant based narcotics (clean and sober ever since). My cardiologist did a myriad of tests including an MRI, Echo, etc. He said everything looked normal. My LBBB would come and go randomly

Treating PVCS on a virtual ward
I have posted on here a number of times about the burden of persistent PVCs. Anyway, after 5 days of feeling very dizzy and nauseous, I went to see my GP. She sent me straight to my local hospital which is a big teaching hospital. I was seen in the Same Day Emergency Medicine unit who were thorough and

propranolol for SVT
I had an ablation two years ago for Afib and so far it is holding. I also have SVT, PVC and PAC. I’m on olmesartan and amlodipine for BP control. I was put on 12.5 mg carvedilol twice daily for rate control which made me feel breathless and exhausted . Changed to Metaprolol which was worse, so put back

PVC study
Just found this study on possible non-invasive treatment for PVCs. Study results do not seem to have been published yet, maybe its still in progress. I'm very interested to know the results. I notice that I often experience ectopics after drinking hot tea within minutes of ingesting. Considering the

BRONCHIECTASIS….PLUS Allergic to medical face mask…any non polypropylene/TPE ones available?
Hi I’m having a nightmare with my bronchiectasis, I’ve had numerous exacerbations this year, use my rescue pack and prednisone when needed…cant remember being well in all honesty. I had HIB in April and given Levofloxacin as Doxycycline won’t shift my HIB. Think I had HIB in 2015, 2016, 2018 and 2023

Ectopics - should I be worried ??
Hi, I had an ablation Nov 2020 which cured my persistent AFib. Was in 100% sinus rhythm until June 2022 when I caught Covid, and had a long run of Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVC's). Spells of arrythmia have continued, 2 out of 3 days my Kardia reports SVE's (Ventricular Ectopics), otherwise

Anyone find PVCs are accompanied by a feeling of mucus in your throat?
I had constant PVCs 24/7 for 6-8 months two years ago. At the time I mentioned to my GP and cardiologist that I felt like I had mucus in the left side of my throat, like post-nasal drip, but they both ignored that and didn't give me any kind of explanation. After starting on HRT (I am in perimenopause

So scared of skipped heart beats.
Hello. This is my first time posting here. I will share a little about myself and skipped best history.I have been having them off and on since my 30's, I am now 66.

1 week post ablation
Hi! I was diagnosed with AFib several years ago as well as atrial flutter, and PVCs . I have been on a number of meds and most recently took Flecainide 50 mg 2xday, metoprolol 12.5mg 1xday and Eliquis 2xday. I had an ablation gone 8 days ago and my EP said I could immediately drop my Flecainide

Rapid heart rate
Hi Last night all of a sudden my pulse went up to around 100 beats and was feeling my wrist was like 5 fast beats then would stop for a while then start going fast again. I felt a little sweaty as well. I get the occasional PVA PVC but never to fast heart rate. After a while like 15 mins or so it

Premature birth linked to hypothyroidism in later life
I'm sure this is probably well known on here but I have just googled to see if there is a linked between UAT and being born prematurely... Well, what do you know! https://www.nature.com/articles/nrendo.2011.61 Lots of articles but this was of particular interest to me as I was born at 29weeks and 6days

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

premature ventricular contraction
hello all, spent a night at A&E to have a 12 year old doctor tell me these are nothing to worry about although it went on for several minutes 3 separate times yesterday and knocked me off my feet 🤷🏻♀️ Apparently unless I actually black out twice I can’t be referred on to anyone and when I why this

Fallen off my little pink cloud
we’ll, after a year post my last ablation, having had very little in the way of AF, it is back with avengance unfortunately. Started Thursday with increased PVCs and SVEs which developed into AF and then tachycardia/flutter at 140 bpm. I rang arrhythmia nurse who said to increase my sotalol and monitor

Hi all! I hope someone can help. After years of telling my doctors that I have regular PVCs, sometimes constantly all day for literally weeks, and they all just told me that wasn't happening, I finally saw a cardiologist who says I have idiopathic RVOT and advised me to get a Kardia 6L. (Which is

Ablation for all types of AF?
I was reading a recent post - To 'ablate or not to ablate' by Tamgirl. Most responses were yes to ablation. I ask this question of everybody on each side of the fence. Do you know what type of AF you have? Your type of AF may have had a bearing on your decision to ablate or hold of on ablation. Vagal
