Sertraline and Sotalol
Apologies as I have already posted this on a previous thread, but I think other fellow AFibbers need to be aware of this. I was recently put on a low does of Sertraline (an anti depressant) as a treatment for IBS, as had the most horrendous abdominal cramps that over the counter medications barely touched

Cold Turkey Stop of Bisoprolol for PVC’s Change to Diltiazem
Hi, I’m a healthy 45 yr old female recently diagnosed with high rate of PVC’s. My heart is healthy, no damage but I’m being referred by my current cardiologist and waiting for an MRI and appointment with a specialist in another city as he said it looks like I’ll need an ablation as the meds have not

Possible Nsvt?
Problem is lately they have been getting worse and while I can bear the isolated
pvc
/pac or even a bigeminy run, what really terrifies me is when I feel a run of them.

Hard uncomfortable thumps.
I have various heart issues, including AF, PACs, PVCs and sinus tachycardia during panic attacks. However, recently I've experienced the occasional strong, thumping beat (which is lso a tiny bit painful). I've only ever experienced these thumps one at a time - they never manifest as couplets, triplets

pure emphysema and inhalers
I have severe but non obstructive emphysema' I had a full spirometry earlier this year and my fev1 was 108% my fev1&2 ratio was 60% but my dclo(gas exchange) is at 34% I am told that i simply do not have enough lung surface area left to improve my oxygen exchange. I get very sob and my nails often

I managed to get up to 65% ish for a few years but am now between 50 & 56% I have a flare up/ chest infection roughly twice a year. I can walk ok

PVCs - benign but ruddy hard work
So far no AF but oh my - “
PVC
”s galore. To me, these feel little different from AF - so very wearing and with the same chest discomfort, aching and levels of fatigue. Thank goodness for the warm weather and my first G&T of the season is all I can say. Steve

Is it reallyCOPD?
Hi, I might be in denial but something seems weird to me. In september 2021 I had pretty nasty covid. My oxygen levels were always good and I didnt have any super big problems with breathing, however I had nasty cough that lingered even after covid was gone. I had a chest xray that showed some scarring

pvcs!
I have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with paradoxal a fib. Over the last couple of days I have been experiencing loads and loads of pvcs. 2/3k a day. I am so anxious. I have emailed my cardiologist and she doesn’t seem bothered. I don’t understand. Anyone else experienced this ?

Need information
Hi everyone I took my last 1 mg Prednisone on 9/5. Sometimes I am nauseous and extremely tired but it's getting better. Unfortunately, I have been getting lots of palpitations for the past few months. A cardiogram was the same as a past one so doctor had me wear a holter monitor for 14 days. That showed

AF and now pvcs.
Afternoon you guys, Just had a great phone consultation with my amazing EP dr Markides from the Royal Brompton. He thinks he’s terminated my Af nicely for now. My heart function he said is great after all my tests, he just wants to keep an eye on my left and right ventricles as they are borderline

Pvcs post covid.
Good afternoon you lot, Hope everyone is well, I’ve had trouble with pvcs since stopping flecainide in March this year, then from July to September they were great until I caught covid last week and since Friday afternoon I’m having Pvcs galore. Will these die down as I start to feel better, I’ve

Palpitations V Afib
Hello everyone. I know some of you are pretty slick with your understanding of ECG readings and I am hoping you can help me with mine. I have had a Kardia device since being diagnosed with Afib in 2017. I find it reassuring when I am mildly worried and get NSR readings, but worrying when I get other

PVC's - when to seek further medical advice?
Hi everyone, After several years of symptomatic and worsening Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation and Premature [u]Atrial[/u] Contractions, I had a cardiac ablation in January 2021 that was very, very succesful - I would heartily recommend an ablation (sorry for that pun!). I have had the odd, rare episode

ablation of PVCs
so had 2nd follow up today after my AF cryoablation 5 months ago. Looks like I’ll be going down route of another ablation but this time for PVCs which have become a nuisance over last few months. Tried meds which aren’t working. Just waiting on 12 lead holter monitor so he can pinpoint where it’s coming

Shortness of breath dyspnea after ablation
It gets worse once the skipping beats (
PVC
s , VESs ?) emerge. I assume it may be due to inflammation and smth temporary. Did not read from others on issues of post ablation shortness of breath. Anyone with similar condition? I am on anticoagulant and bisoprolol, can that be a side effect?
