Cryo ablation 6 days ago..am I back in AF?
I've been for an ECG this afternoon the results of which are being passed to the arrhythmia nurse team at the JR in Oxford, where I had a cryo ablation last Friday. AF symptoms of breathlessness and feeling faint and then some for a couple of days and now a bit more settled but irregular and fast pulse

Update on heart problems
Thank you all for your input last week re my 2 leaky valves and pulmonary hypertension diagnosis. Forgot to mention also have very low heart beat, low 40s , of which I was already aware but thought that was healthy, however, bradycardia at my age is apparently not good.I did a lot of phoning around

GCA-Lyme Disease Connection?
Hi all, My wife is a long-time Lyme Disease sufferer, and has recently had a consultation with a biologist/pathologist. This person takes a blood sample and then looks at it under the microscope while the patient is present -- and then comments on what has been seen. My wife had the classic signs

5 Days Post Ablation and getting an ECG
After three days of being extremely breathless and light headed following a cryo ablation at the JR last Friday I'm now feeling more settled, my pulse still fast and irregular but not as extreme. I had a call from an arrhythmia nurse (at last) at the JR who was very helpful. The next step is an ECG

No one died from A F
I posted earlier today . I am not now being negative , I am trying to be pragmatic . On this brilliant forum we are constantly told “ no one dies of AF “. I was wondering what actually brought on the first bout of A F to people here. Mine came on years after Mitral Valve repair . 2 long ablations

What is a cardioversion?
If you have AF you may have been offered a cardioversion, but may be unsure of what to expect? A
cardioversion
is a procedure to convert your heart from AF back into normal (sinus) rhythm. This is achieved by administering a rhythm control medication (antiarrhythmic drug) by mouth or through

Lopressor dose titration
Permanent afib 100mgm of Lopressor am & 50 pm plus eliquis. Decided to cut back to 50 in am because of blurred vision and now have had upset stomach times 1 week plus HR back up to low 100's. Thought I felt better on lower dose but maybe not??

Too Much Omega 3 triggering AFib?
I care for a family member with an AFib history. It has recently reared its head again after several years without an issue. I have been trying to find a possible trigger. One of the possible things I suspect is that it may be the overhaul in her diet the last couple of months. I noticed one day

hydroxychloroquine and stuffy itchy nose with occasional bleeding.
My rheumatologist added hydroxychloroquine to my methotrexate regiment for my rheumatoid arthritis. After a few weeks on the hydroxychloroquine, my nose has become itchy and stuffed up, especially when lying down and I am having trouble sleeping. Has anyone else had this problem?

Fitbit versus Apple watch

cutaneous lupus
Hello Kim, I also suffer from cutaneous lupus and I have recently had it in my scalp. Have you tried dermovate hair and scalp liquid? My consultant prescribed it to me and it’s actually worked really well. It even worked on my skin. i really hope this helps you.
