Amiodarone
I had 3 ablations at MUSC to address PVC’s and ARVC, got an ICD after that, then developed AFib followed by an atrial ablation and finally a cardioversion to fix atrial flutter a month after the shocker. I’ve felt fine through all of this - asymptomatic all along. I’m 70 and was a runner for 22 years

Can you have multiple heart 'problem' types at the same time and what's the significance?
So far on my list over the last few years, I've had Atrial Fibrillation with rapid ventricular response, Sinus Bradycardia, Premature Atrial Contractions, (bigeminy, trigeminy) and Premature Ventricular Contraction, Right Bundle Branch Block and now it looks like potentially Atrioventricular nodal reentry

Low heart rate on my Apple Watch after exercise
I get a low heart rate reading after exercise. This lasts for approximately 2 hours. I have been diagnosed with PVC and taking 50 mg of flecainide twice daily. Are there any suggestions .

More problems with PVCs.
It’s now nearly a month since I had a quadruple bypass. For over a week I’ve had lots of PVCs (premature ventricular contractions) as referred to in an earlier post, but today they have gone into overdrive. I’ve had them since about 0900 this morning and it’s now just past midnight. The frequency varies

loads of pvcs
had my first cardio version last Wednesday after being in AF for 3 months. I flipped back into NSR after the first shock which is great but since then I have been dealing with 1000s of pvcs. 4-8 per mins. It is draining! I knew they say that everyone gets them although not this many I guess. I feel

1000's of PVCs!
So about 5 weeks ago, out of nowhere, I started with PVCs constantly over a 24 hour period. It stopped the next day. It happened again 2 days later, again gor 24 hours. Then about 4 days after that, I was woken up at 4am by really strong heart flutters. I got up, went to work (I work in cardiac theatres

Ongoing nausea
I am on the full cocktail of meds for HCM and AF. Bisoprolol was changed to 6.25 mg Nebivolol 5 weeks ago due to increased PVCs which are now under control. Am suffering with constant pretty bad nausea BUT this had started on and off a few weeks before the change of beta blocker. I was having good and

PVC’s (ectopics) or AF?
I’m now home following a bypass about three weeks ago. Whilst I feel fatigued, I’m managing to walk 500m or so daily. My resting heart rate has come down to about 58-68 bpm. The medication which I am taking daily to control arrhythmias is Bisoprolol 10mg which replaces my former Sotalol. There is

PVCs again and again!
Still seem to be getting more than my fair share of PVCs recorded on my Kardia. Yesterday every hourly reading recorded SR with premature ventricular contractions. Fed up with it as I'm really aware of them. I've taken an extra bisoprolol today and am hoping that helps.....I guess I'm going to have

Metopralol tartrate vs succinate er..differences please and which is better for eptopics and flutters?
Would like to know which is better for what? I have pacs pvcs and some low hr in the 50s at times. I have been on succinate for several months a low dose didn't work well. I have been switched to the Tartrate. I would like to know what has helped others. It seemed to help with flutters some but

Update on CT coronary angiogram - totally confused by results, anyone had this experience?
(By the way, my sister had AVNRT (Atrio
ventricular
nodal re-entrant
tachycardia
) years ago and it took 5 years to pick it up on a heart monitor and prove she was right. She had to have surgery to stop it. ) Thanks for listening - as always.

Anxiety over ectopics.
Morning all.I had a flutter ablation in May all good.My question is does anyone still check pulse overly and I'm in a constant state of anxiety every time the ectopics start seemingly out of the blue that they will fire up the arrhythmia again.Had a very brief followup after 7 months and I'm waiting

0ne year on from AF ablation.
Positive changes since my ablation in Dec 2021: my AF episodes and panic attacks have become less intense. My heart rate never goes beyond 120 BPM during an AF episode now, and the longest episode I've had has been about 90 seconds. My panic attacks have probably become less severe due to Bisoprolol,

Eptopics And flutters
Well it's 6 years in dealing with these horrible things..PVCs PACs PSVT Fluttering..3 Cardiologist later and no real solution that works for me.I can say the one thing that has not worked is trying to EMBRACE them. I don't think I can ever get use to them or ignore them..no matter how I try. I take

Premature atrial contractions (PAC) and Premature ventricular contractions (PVC). Same triggers as Afib?
Just curious what causes PAC's and PVC's to vary so widely. Last night over an 8 hour period I had 2,608 PAC's and 1,237 PVC's, which was much higher then usual. My Afib burden is very low, each time only lasting 20 seconds and not as bothersome. The night before for the same period I only had 276

Anyone else feel voiceless in appointments?
So tired of everything right now. Speaking to my cardiologist who just seems to completely ignore excessive evidence provided to him relating to the frequency of my PVCs. Why is it adult patients are spoken to like they’re either stupid or children? I actually spoke up for once and said I felt
