I have AF together with three leaky heart valves, two of which are mild.
How vulnerable am I with regard to Coronavirus ? I take an anticoagulant - Apixaban and a beta blocker Bisoprolol.

My Post PVI ablation horrors take a turn for the better!
I’ve read so many experiences that people have kindly shared with the community of fellow sufferers that I felt compelled to share my own, and hope that it is of some help to anybody who has PAF and wondering about undergoing an ablation or maybe if you are recovering from one! I’m a pretty fit 61 year

Covid19 is starting to remind me of CAPS
Has anyone else seen the resemblance of severe covid19 to catastrophic Antiphospholipid syndrome? High D dimer, pulmonary embolism, kidney and liver failure with high cytokine Storm. Treatments are similar as well. Plasma, monoclonal antibodies, HCQ and now most recent success stories include anticoagulant

Nocturnal Dialysis Problems
Well, I've finally started nocturnal dialysis and much to my chagrin it is not what I thought it would be. It is torture. The first couple of dialysis sessions were only two hours long and were uneventful and went by rather pleasantly. However, I'm now doing twice a week, nocturnal dialysis (6 hours

New to Afib and don't know what to expect....
Just been diagnosed with persistent Afib, and I have been put on beta blockers (started 2 weeks ago), no blood thinners, I have no underlying health problems and the consensus is I have it because I did endurance cycling. I am 54. This is all new to me, I can't really do a lot without getting tired very

There's a paper just out on GI bleeding on anti-coagulants: https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/925291 Apparently there is a 10-24 times risk of colorectal cancer if you bleed from the lower GI tract whist on

anticoagulants
started on Atorvastatin 20mg and Edoxaban 30mg. (My weight is just under the 60kg).

How long is long
I had a ct scan of my heart very recently just before COVID , followed by a visit to my cardiologist. I was worried that my afib episodes are getting longer and also less uncomfortable ie “ normalising” The scan showed a ( very) healthy heart and my cardiologist was very reassuring that afib was not

Hello all, I will be going on
