from HR 123 seated to 197 standing moving
I was diagnosed with Afib about two years ago. It is paroxysmal and originally I was having episodes every 4 to 6 weeks. I have been on propafenone since January and is has been working well. The last episode I had was on July 3 - until this morning. I woke about 2:30 a.m. and was in Afib. Did a kardia

TiredofIBS
Anyone here has experienced getting Afib after strong orgasmic event? Been shocked back into sinus rhythm but cardiologist does not feel this event caused my Afib but my mitral valve regurgitation. No question it was the strong orgasm as I experienced strong heart abnormal beats like your heart was going

3 months post ablation…..
Good morning from Texas…in the attempt to give us a new topic (without searching to see if it has already been discussed ad nauseam)… I’m 3 months post ablation with no Afib…hooray…but I have a 30-40 bpm heart rate jump when I get up in the night to visit the bathroom. After I snuggle back in bed it

Permanent AFib
So I have joined the ranks of being permanently in AFib. This has been for two weeks now, and to be honest it feels better than having periods of AFib. My journey started about 18months ago when I got short bursts of high heart rate and irregular beats. Since then it has got steadily more and more

1 year since my Widowmaker update
Hi all, Yesterday I had my final check in with the Cardiology doctors and I’m in great health, my heart is strong, I feel strong and I’m now only taking aspirin and atorvastatin. A far cry from walking into A&E on 16/11/20 and suffering a STEMI which stopped my heart for 90 seconds. I was lucky that

My PVC’s are back! I used to take Escitalopram for 4 years to keep them under control.
I have found 2 studies that note that Escitalopram could be a precursor to AFib. Another item that cardiologists don’t mention. PVC’s are making my heart do double backflips at night causing anxiety. Anyone in the same situation?

Hope it's nothing
On 8-2-21 I had the following: mitral valve repair, aortic valve repair, ligation of atrial appendage, cryo maze ablation, and they fixed a hole in heart. Things have been going well for the most part on my recovery, although about late October early November I've been noticing some skipped beats when

The same old story
I’m a 75 year old male who enjoyed reasonable health until I was whisked to hospital about 6 months ago with a fib, and since then I’ve been struggling with skipped beats, particularly at night - I’d give anything for a relaxed night’s sleep. I know so many people are in the same boat, hence my heading

Should you see a Cardiologist Specialist?
After a few visits to A&E last year, commencing in June, I was diagnosed with PAF, started on Bisoprolol and Rivaroxaban, I eventually had an Echocardiogram in June this year with a report that all was okay. I have just returned to the gym and swimming this week. This morning I managed 6 lengths with

Can pvcs do this?
I've been told I've got pvcs. I know how they feel in my chest and my pulse. But when I'm taking my pulse I've noticed that it's not normal at all. Like I get the gap and the big beats are my pvcs, but I'm also getting big gaps with normal beats after, big gaps with a big beat after, a few normal beats

Hi I’m a 65 year old woman. A nurse. First episode of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation was 2015. Started metoprolol 25 mg but after some heart pounders over the years added 12.5 at night. Had an episode of A Fib in September 5 and then November 9. Both times i went the ER, afraid of developing a clot.

2.5 years since my 3rd ablation
It has been awhile since I have last posted after my cardiac tamponade during my 2nd ablation and thought I would give an update and share the good news. My 3rd ablation went well and it has been over 2 years since I had it done. I have had no afib episodes since then. In fact I just had a heart

My Wolf Mini Maze update....
Its now been 15 weeks since I had the Wolf Mini Maze done by Dr. Wolf himself in Houston Texas (in the states). What a beautiful and exciting feeling it is to wake up and go through the day, bed over to scrub floors or do garden work, have several beers with friends or even a few cocktails, ride bike

Weight loss and exercise.
Just thought I'd drop a quick hello to you all. I hope your all safe and well. Looking for some advice on the best way to lose weight whilst living with Atrial Fibrillation. Finding it very tough to exercise without sending my heart rate into a high beat. Thanks.

Mini Miracle
I was diagnosed with Afib in late August. Had a cardioversion that lasted a week. Went on to Sotalol- kicking and screaming all the way. As of two days ago my 24/7 Afib stopped and I am in Sinus Rhythm. Dr. said it was due to Sotalol and if I stop it the Afib will return. My heart is enlarged noted

Cardioversion yesterday. On bisoprolol 7.5 for AFib but also needed post MI. Pulse 47/54. Will pulse gradually improve over next few days?
Had stemi. Cardiac arrest and stent fitted 3 months ago. Was in continuous AFib till cardio version. Bisoprolol was for AFib but also to help damaged heart muscle heal post heart attack ( best dose for that is 10mg). So trying not to decrease it. If I stay in sinus rhythm will my pulse improve?

Overwhelming fatigue, chills, shortness of breath, weakness - recent labs
I’m two months into injections. Had weekly shots the first month and have had shots three times a week for the past month. I feel so awful that I can barely function. I’m short of breath,weak, dizzy have chronic PVCs and have chills most of the time. These are the same symptoms I’ve had for the last
