Ablation success
Hi all! I was wondering if there are any long time ablation success stories out there ? I had PAF, had a 4 vessel PVI cryoablation in Mach of 2018 and am off all meds and Noacs. Besides a few episodes that last 2-5 seconds or an occassional PVC, I am doing great. Anyone else out there with a success

Atrial Flutter?
I had a very similar experience. About four weeks after my RF ablation my heart rate jumped from a very steady 60 to a very steady 135. ( I have an I CD that maintains my heart rate at 60) my EP called, said I was in atrial flutter, and did a cardioversion the next day to shock me back into a normal

where I’m at and what docs suggest
hello all I have occasional episodes of AFib up to 5 days a couple of times a year but have been having more shorter episodes for a few seconds or minutes at times, very occasionally at night when sleeping on my stomach. So a change. I take apixaban. My life is normal other than tiredness probably

I just spoke with my doctors nurse and it shows you can always learn new things and you can also mess things up. Lol. I hadn’t mentioned much about being a little bit nervous regarding my new pacemaker. The past two days my heart rate has been up. I am set for 80. I have noticed, and I know that my

Has anyone had their Cardiac Recovery Rate drop, shortly after starting Nubeqa/daro or another kind of 2nd line AR?
Have any of you had your Cardiac Recovery Rate (or Heart rate recovery) drop, shortly after starting Nubeqa/daro or another kind of 2nd line AR (zytiga, xtandi, erleada etc)?Prior to starting Nubeqa, my Cardiac recovery rate was between 29-33. I started Nubeqa about three weeks ago and the two different

PVC's anyone?...
Hi all, after OH surgery in November and a few problems with Afib after, I have been doing fine until Monday when I felt odd palpitations and felt usual light headed and out of sorts. I thought it would be AFib again but on checking on the Kardiamobile it showed as Premature Ventricular Contractions

Dilated cardiomyopathy
Hi, My name is Charlie and I was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy last year. Unfortunately last month I went into another severe ventricular tachycardia storm where I had to be put to sleep for 4 days, I've got a pacemaker and a defibrillator however I have been informed that I would be put on

AF or PVCS ablation
I have had a high burden of palpitations since my covid booster in September 2022. In February had 48 and 7 days Holter which both showed 11% PVCs plus bigemeny and trigemeny. My Apple Watch showed only SVT not PVCs. I had nhs appointment with EP and he advised ablation and promised to do AF and PVCS

Atrial Tachycardia ablation coming up
I’m going in once again for another ablation. The 3rd one finally finished off the afib. But they couldn’t trigger the atrial tachycardia. Since it’s become even more frequent since the last ablation, I decided to give it another go. Dreading it even more than normal since our local hospital has stopped

Ablation Cardiologist London?
Hi all, I have been told I should have an ablation asap. Likely within three or so weeks. I have had Atrial Fibrillation and Flutter. If anyone is willing to share who they saw and outcome that would be much appreciated! I am still trying to absorb it all. I developed the afib and flutter

Prophylactics
Hi I have been on Acalabrutinib for two weeks now along with prophylactics, one being Co trimoxazole , which I seemed to react to. I have now been offered Pentamidine, which I have read up on and don’t like the sound of plus it does not sound as if it protects as well. Is anyone else on these drugs

Digoxin vs Pace & Ablate?
As some already know I’ve had a hard recovery since ablation on 23/11/22. HR was on the rise again slowly from then and the severe respiratory episode went on & on. Just coming to the end of what I think is maybe the 5th antibiotic course! I’ve now been on digoxin 125mcg since 28/2/22 and following

Ectopics
I've had no Afib as such for a couple of years but do get quite a lot of ectopics which generally don't bother me apart from being a bit tired occasionally. I've read on here that a number of people have seen improvement with SVCs and PVCs after starting on flecanide. I'm reluctant to take any more meds

Bisoprolol to Sotalol
Hi everyone. I’ve been on 10 mgs of Bisoprolol for a year, having had the dose gradually increased since my diagnosis in 2017. This drug has served me well in lowering my heart rate when it has gone into Tachycardia territory. My cardiologist has said that if my Afib bothers me me more, then as I am

Re my post : Forgotten drugs and palpitations…..
I posted about having lots of SVEs and PVCs in the last couple of days, confirmed on Kardia. While I have been sat here moping - 🙄 - I have realised that a couple of weeks ago I started using my Kardia holding one of the sensors just above my knee. This is shown in the original instructions as an alternative

Shockwave Therapy By Chiropractor
I just went to a Chiropractor for treatment of agonizing pain in my upper back. He wants to treat me with shockwave therapy but I have concerns of this affecting my atrial fibrillation. I am presently only taking an anticoagulant, and no other meds for my AF. Has anyone had this type of treatment

Forgotten drugs, as well as palpitations…..
I’ve had daily Afib episodes lately, but they have not been severe. I was thinking I would let my GP know, and then 9 days ago they stopped ( had one yesterday ) and have been replaced by PVCs and SVEs. These feel like they are all the time , although calmer in the night and I am sleeping. All this
