Look after yourself!
Hi everyone, as you will know from previous posts, my hubby has decompensated liver and is still drinking, with an "If I die, I die" attitude. So today saw me at the GP for myself (felt a bit self indulgent tbh) and I've got low haemoglobin, low vitamin levels, possibly due to Covid a couple of months

Exercise and Afib
I'm sure you all already know this but I discovered this recently. My cardiologist sent me to cardiac rehab because I have afib and some wall weakening in the heart. The idea is to strengthen the heart muscle to be able to handle any arrhythmia that may come my way. I always thought that talk

6 month post mini maze (surgical ablation) in the U.K. All is going well, no regrets
hello you lovely lot. I thought I would give you an update as I have had my 6 month (and final eeeek) review with my mini maze surgeon Mr Hunter this morning. All has been going well, in sinus rythm since my mini maze. I had a two week heart monitor a few weeks ago, all good! I have a low burden

Taking part in Watchman trial to establish if it’s safe to come off anti-coagulants like Apixaban
Good afternoon everyone. On Thursday I am scheduled to go for a procedure to have a Watchman device fitted inside my heart at John Radcliffe Hospital here in Oxford under supervision of the Cardiac Research Team. I volunteered to do this as part of a world wide trial covering 3000 patients to assess

Grateful for any Feedback on PVI Ablation Please
Hi, My background is:- Developed Atrial Fibrillation in November 2021 (persistent from day 1). Had a cardioversion in February 2022, which lasted about 7 weeks and then back into persistent AF, looking back I carried on as normal after the cardioversion and perhaps I should have been more careful.

Have any Vagal Afibbers tried exercising before bed?
As I have Vagal Afib I can switch it off early on in an episode with a Valsalva maneuver. A few nights ago I could not stop the Afib as it did not wake me immediately, so I could not stop it the usual way. I had read that some people exercise during Afib, so rather than pop another Flecainide pill I

Wolf Mini maze. It Works.
Hi, I am really in good shape after the Wolf mini maze. I am almost off all medications and only some few PVCs occasionally., I am here to tell you that The Wolf mini maze is amazing and that Doctor Wolf is amazing. I wish more surgeons would learn how to do this procedure. I am horrified by all the

Sertraline and Sotalol
Apologies as I have already posted this on a previous thread, but I think other fellow AFibbers need to be aware of this. I was recently put on a low does of Sertraline (an anti depressant) as a treatment for IBS, as had the most horrendous abdominal cramps that over the counter medications barely touched

The first and often only symptom of a sudden cardiac arrest is when someone faints. Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is a condition in which the heart stops beating suddenly and unexpectedly due to a malfunction in the heart’s electrical system. The cause of a Sudden Cardiac Arrest is a life-threatening abnormal

Docetaxel Extends Enzalutamide Effectiveness
This is our first proof that resistance to enzalutamide can be reduced with docetaxel. It also shows that triplet therapy may be beneficial in patients who have already progressed to castration resistance. We would expect a larger effect if used at the first sign of castration resistance. https://www.prostatecancer.news

Review of the Wellue 24 hour heart monitor with AI analysis.
I have bought one of these and am very impressed with what it detects and reports. See https://getwellue.com/products/heart-health-monitor Has an optional chest strap included so you can clip the monitor direct to the strap rather than use the adhesive pads. Detects up to 17 kinds of ECG events. When
