BRONCHIECTASIS….PLUS Allergic to medical face mask…any non polypropylene/TPE ones available?
I’ve been given a Cirrus2 inter surgical Ecolite mask kit which I’m told is non
pvc
and non latex but lo and behold…blisters and rash in my hair……I’ve spoken to Intersurgical and the mask appears to be made from Polypropylene/TPE.

Advice managing anxiety about PVCs/PACs
I've suffered with ectopic heart beats for the past 12 years. I had an ablation for Wolf Parkinson White 10 years ago and the PVCs and PACs settled down a lot after that. I'd get periods of weeks or months where I'd have flare ups now and then but never substantial and tests always came back clear. I

Which beta blocker is best for PACs?
good morning I Wonder if anyone can help? I am a 48 year old perimenopausal women. I’ve been having infrequent ectopics for the past 3 years and I’m on propanolol 80mg slow release mainly for anxiety.

Cardioversion and PVCs and PACs
Does a cardioversion help if you have PVCs and PACs or does it only help if you have Afib? I go in and out of Afib but my PVCs and PACs have been non-stop for 3 months. Flecainide did not work. I’m considering a cardioversion as I’m to the point I will try anything to get my heart back into NSR but

Flecainide for Afib, PVCs and PACs
I’ve been taking 10 mg of Flecainide twice a day for almost a month. My question is, how long does it take before Flecainide starts to work? I have seen no difference in my Afib, PVCs, PAC and Trigeminy. In fact, I could almost say they have gotten worse. Is it possible that Flecainide doesn’t work

Short spikes of raised HR?
Hello again, My ablation was mid March and I've been in NSR since bar 2 short episodes of AF that self converted when I was under extreme stress. Every now and then (once every 3 weeks or so) I guess I get a short spike of raised heart rate shown on my fitbit, if I'm sitting quietly I'm aware of it

83 years old - Firmagon or Zoladex ? Conflicted which to choose.
Dad is 83 and has to start on ADT from Tomorrow. He has no known cardiac issues but we have a strong family history of cardiac disease. His dad and brother both passed from it He also gets ectopic beats/ pvc’s since many years but all cardiologists say those are benign and not to bother. His blood

Ectopic beats are freaking me out.
I have recently started to experience frequent PVCS (ectopic beats). Lying down I seem to be ok, but when up and about I get them every 5-10 seconds or so sometimes!! My cardiologist doesn’t seem to be concerned as I had a normal echocardiogram and kind of just sent me on my way. He said it might be

increase in PVCs
I notice an increase in my PVCs upon rolling over or changing positions while in bed. Has anyone else noted this and,if so, has he/she been given an explanation of why positional changes provoke their PVCs?

Return of PVCs and Flecainide as pill in pocket.
I was previously taking 100mg Flecainide twice a day along with 1.25mg bisoprolol in the mornings for episodes of PACs and occasional PVCs. I was on this medication for almost 2 years before deciding that I would like to try and come off it. My cardiologist advised me how to slowly withdraw and I have

Hashimotos for Sixteen Years, Realizing I Know Next to Nothing
This is a long story, and as with so much in this "we have too much info" age, I'm probably over-responding, but, I was recently blindsided by a new health condition, and I don't fancy having it happen again if there are cues available. I've had hypothyroidism/Hashimotos for 16-17 years, at least based

Pulsed Field Ablation in Australia
I just had my six-month checkup with my electrophysiologist. He was quite excited as our local hospital is commissioning a pulsed-field ablation system in 4 weeks time. Much safer than RF or Cryoablation. This video from Medtronic explains the pulsed field technology: https://youtu.be/rH8SvEq398M I
