Aberrancy vs PVCs
I decided to send last night’s Kardia results to them for analysis. It came back confirming atrial fibrillation (no surprises there). Then it said, “aberrancy vs PVCs”. Does anyone know what this means? I know what PVCs are but I’m not sure what this statement means. By the way I saw my GP today who

Bisoprolol and PVCS
I’m a 25 year old female that’s a mess right now. To start off my dad has a heart condition to where he gets into VT. He has a defibrillator, and he’s in his 40s. He recently had a genetic test done that says his condition isn’t genetic. But my cardiologist was like “well that doesn’t really mean anything

Is this sleep apnea?
I'd originally thought it was a PAC/
PVC
that's caught me by surprise but over the past couple of months it's become clear to me that I'm being startled awake because I've temporarily stopped breathing.

I don't understand my results....
Hi All, Had a spirometry today as I've been feeling short of breath. I'm 33, female, 176cm, overweight, former smoker FEV1 3.76 (101%) FVC 4.87 (111%) but the one I am worried about is the ratio which is 77%, thats very border line to "low" for my age. Should I be worried? Doc just said keep an eye

Runs of pvcs?
I've had tests done and my heart is over all healthy but I've always had pvc's every once in a while. I'm in my 3rd trimester of pregnancy and lately I'm having runs of pvc's. I'll get them every other heart beat for about 15 minutes and then they'll eventually die out. What could this be? Why am I getting

FEV1/FVC Improvement!
Hi All, Not written for a while, I hope everyone is keeping well and breathing easy. I recently had my second ever lung function test and happy to report that I seem to have made a slight improvement in my FEV1 and FVC stats. Back in February my results were: - FEV1 2.4ltr (61%) / FVC 2.63ltr Yesterday

Blanking period may be way longer than 3 months!
Interesting post - afibbers.org/forum/read.php... the blanking period might be way longer. U have seen the paper with statistics in thousands where post-ablation PVCs from AF ablation that PEAKS at 3 months (that is nominal blanking where no judgement for success or failure can be made) but subsides

New diagnosis of Vasovagal reflex
Hi, I’m 37, 240 lbs, 5’ 4”, Caucasian, female...I was working my usual 12hr shift (on 8/22/18) and was about 6hrs in when I felt a flutter in my chest with nausea. I quickly sat down and hooked myself up to a bp machine. My heart rate was 58 and I got an error reading on the machine for my blood pressure

Looking for information on FEV1, and Floppy Airways
I've heard other people mention FEV1. According to my letter from my lung specialist my FEV1 is very obstructed. Going from 43.7% in July down to 39% this week. I understand I'm going downhill but still not had anything really explained. As of August 2016 I could walk uphill no problem then the month
