HELP. My AF has returned with a vengeance. it was diagnosed approx 3 years ago. I was prescribed Amiodarone and placed on a list for a cardioversion. Just before the cardioverion the Amiodarone I had been taking for 6 weeks kicked in and I returned to NSR and the CV was cancelled. The Amiodarone worked

Feeling so lost and alone
Hi ladies, I have been lurking and reading your stories for the last few weeks and in total admiration of your personal battles through this horrible journey. My story started in October last year when I thought I was suffering from a urine infection, after many delays in not being able to see a doctor

BCS or Mastectomy
My wife is under going Chemo for her breast cancer and surgery is to follow after Chemo 4AC + 12 Taxol, Herceptin . Oncologist is asking us whether we want breast conservative surgery or Mastectomy. They need to fix some metallic marker in case of BCS. I invite suggestions or pros and cons of both!

2nd Chemo for my wife!
My wife 66 year old is not tech savvy hence as a care giver I am sharing her exp. Will show the posts and responses to her as she needs support to go through the side effects of chemo and face it up.

Switching from Sotalol to Flecainide and Digoxin
The consultant I saw at St Barts said that I should switch from Sotalol to Flecainide (I don’t know what the dose is- the prescription just says “as directed by cardiology”; the tablet strength is 50mg) and digoxin 125mg once a day. I am rather apprehensive about this. This was in response to my saying

High temperature
Hi all. I was diagnosed with PAF last July. Since then I have been on Sotalol which was replaced by Bisopralol and Flecainide. I have been experiencing periods of ectopic beats since the change. I don’t tolerate beta blockers very well. Two days ago I started a head cold and my temperature has been

Breathless
I have had AF for 23 yrs. I have taken various beta blockers such as Sotalol, bisoprolol and am now on Nebivolol 2.5 mg which I split. I have a pacemaker too. But I get so breathless I cannot go for a walk. I also have Angina. My question is there anything that could alleviate me of my breathlessness

Are beta blockers prescribed in paroxysmal AF without proper consideration?
NICE guidelines recommend beta blockers other than sotalol for rate control, as regular ongoing treatment. I see the logic of giving them for frequent episodes of symptomatic adrenergic type AF (precipitated by anxiety, stress and exercise) with high heart rates. Also in combination with Flecainide

Ablation assessment at St Barts
I had my ablation assessment at St Barts and it has been proposed that I have an ablation in around 6 months. The EP I saw was very good and provided lots of information about the procedure and AF generally. There are a couple of points in this post which might be of interest to those with AF generally

Tomorrow is 14 weeks post ablation
Except for my crazy afib episode that happened 3 days after my ablation, I’m happy to report that I’m doing well. I had a 1 minute episode confirmed by my Kardia device, about 4 weeks ago. I had another one last night, literally 10 seconds long, where my heart went out of wack. Both times I was at my

Avastin and 2nd line chemo, Aurelia trial?
Hi there I'm on 2nd line weekly Taxol for recurrance 2 months after end of first line treatment. I am considering whether to self fund Avastin to be added to the Taxol. My oncologist has said that the benefit will be minimal and may not delay the progression much and has pointed me in the direction of

Should I go ahead with ablation
I have been having af for about 2 years now with each episode getting wrose than the previous one. I started to get them every three months. I went into hospital last August for 3 days and they put me on to another tablet Digoxin. I was already taking apixaban and sotalol. Since then I have not had any
