Post ablation arrhythmia
I am almost 4 months post ablation for atrial fibrillation. Whilst jogging after my daughter, who was on her scooter, I had an odd heart episode. It may have been AF, but it felt like it could also have been ectopics combined with sinus rhythm - my heart was already beating quite fast, which made it

Ventricular tachycardia and ablation for PVCs
Hi I’m due to see my EP in June to discuss catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia and PVCs. Has anyone had a VT ablation or An ablation just for PVCs ?

Coming off medication
Hi all, well it’s 1 AM just woke up , heart thumping , headache, long gaps in between beats on Apple Watch , I feel really strange. It feels like it’s missing a beat but not sure, the Watch says 76 bpm and sinus rhythm. I’m guessing it’s something to do with halving the bisoprolol and flecainide. Any

Ablation Date 28th May 2022
Hi all, Currently a difficult time, my heart is going nuts for the past two weeks. Had 140 BPM AF yesterday and in between all that LOADS of 'Unclassified' on Kardia which are groups of PACs and PVCs driving me nuts. Anyone had their symptoms worsen the longer you are on Apixaban? Currently on 200MG

Shall I go for an ablation?
I’m a 72 year old woman who used to be for ever off on some long haul trip but I haven’t had a holiday for well over two years now. After a very scary ‘collapse’ in January 2021, I was diagnosed with af . I had my first cardioversion in May last year (just one shock) and it kept me in sinus rhythm

Sliding into persistent Afib
Hello I am on Flecaine 200 ( slow release) and 3.75 Bisoprolol. I usually get episodes 1 or 2 times a month the longest lasting between 5 an7 hours which self resolve. However last Saturday/Sunday night at 2 in the morning I popped into Afib. This lasted until in 1 pm the next day. I was a bit wiped

Ectopic beats are a pain.
Hello everybody, hope you’re all as well as can be, 10 months post 2nd ablation and over a month ago came off of flecainide, still taking bisoprolol and apixaban. I spoke to my ep last week and said all was well was having some bumps but felt the ablation was blocking them quite well, hunky dory we both

Failed fourth ablation
My husband just had his 4th ablation (first one was way back in 2007), surgeon just shrugged and said it was a no go, too much scarring from previous ones...told pacemaker next...so sad. He's in constant flutter mode right now and we don't know what to do? If it flips into fibrillation, do we go back

Stress test
At my recent visit to EP he said he would schedule me for stress test. I asked why and he said it had been 4 yrs. since I had one and he didn’t want to miss anything. I told him after my last one I didn’t plan to do it again! My afib is brought on by extreme physical stress and/or extreme emotional

An anniversary....of sorts
It was four years ago today that I was diagnosed with Atrial Flutter and given a DC cardioversion (after the chemical cardioversion failed). I remember sitting despondently in the hospital bed, thinking I now have a heart issue that will need declaration on travel insurance and could have a big impact

Another blip
First since late December, this time didn't even have a cold or anything that usually makes the HR go up and the AF kick in. Had been at work yesterday, drank OK (I thought) and although going 8 miles around the ward didn't feel too manic. Have been a bit stressed this week with wife being on nights

Nightly afib!
Well, despite trying everything from magnesium taurate to arginine, vitamin C and D and everything in between. I still get nightly episodes of afib that wake me usually between tow to three hours after going to bed! I can always self terminate these episodes using a variety of vagal manoeuvres but I’

Matcha green tea
Hello … I am thinking about starting to drink this type of tea. I have read that it is very healthy. I cannot drink coffee because it is too caffeinated. This supposedly has half the caffeine per cup but it is still somewhat caffeinated. Has anyone tried this type of tea? I am afraid that it might

Supraventricular tachycardia post ablation

Before the procedure I didn't have these. I am 41yrs and take 2.5mg bisoprolol, 80mg telmisartan and 1.5mg indapamide

My EP said if the Flecainide don’t work then I could have an ablation. I was just wondering what the odds are if the ablation making my PVCs

Feeling upset
I had a successful ablation in October 2020. Since then I had a couple of echo cardiograms and blood tests and my heart function improved a good deal. Was back playing tennis and at the gym with the agreement of dr. Two weeks ago I felt unwell, no appetite and tired for a couple of days. Woke up

High blood pressure.
I had my blood pressure taken at the pharmacy today. He said it was high. I was shocked as it has always been very good. The last time I last it taken the nurse said it was excellent. What causes high blood pressure Could it be Warfarin or Bisoprolol? Unless it could be because I have AF now?
