can anyone translate the cardio speak into everyday English?
I am a 3 year Long Covid sufferer still having problems with BP, HR , breathlessness and lack of sense of smell… I am on 5 BP drugs (amlodipine, bisoprolol, doxazosin, indapamide and losartan ) and had two ECGs, 1 echocardiogram and 2 X-rays. Although I was referred to a cardio over a year ago never

Thoughts on Atenolol
I'm 50 yo male, had my thyroid removed in 2017 and also at the same time had my first episode of af which lasted 3 days. At the time my GP prescribed atenolol to help. I found it very effective at slowing my heart rate and settled on having 25mg a day but it was never able to end an af episode, only

Awful Fibrillation
thanks all who have replied I have not seen a Cardiologist face to face for three years , just phone calls spasmodically. You cannot get to see a GP here in Bristol either The last call I was told I should up my Dosage of Bisoprolol to 15mg as my legs are retaining water and I am poor on balance .

Hand muscle loss and pain
Have GCAPMR and paroxysmal AFib. Down to 5.5mg pred and taking Atenolol beta blocker. 7 weeks ago I had what felt like signs of Carpal tunnel syndrome and Rheum nurse support team suggested on phone that's what it probably was, suggested upping the pred. I upped it to 8 for 4 days then came back to 5.5

AV node ablation with pacemaker implant
I'm an 85 woman with permanent AF since 2018. It started in 2011 and was ill-treated for many years. Now my new EP suggested having an AV node ablation as a last resort. However, he advised me that it is with some risks, the procedure, and also with a pacemaker implanted. I'm on Atenolol, 12 mg once

Effects of Lercanidipine
I have been taking Atenolol and Losartan for many years to control my high blood pressure but it seems that recently my BP is high again so about 3 months ago Lercanidipine was been added to the other two tablets. At first I felt a bit woozy and tired but that has worn off. However, in the last few

Heartburn-question for the forum
I have fairly well controlled PAF, current meds are propafenone, atenolol and Eliquis. I suffer from occasional heartburn (more than occasional if I do something stupid like have fried onion rings with dinner). If I have heartburn come bedtime, no matter how many Gelusil I might consume, it's almost

I had tried Angitil for a few weeks before being changed to atenolol. That made me feel dreadful but

Counting the days to an ablation for Focal Atrial Tachycardia
Tanta Anna follow up! Has anyone had this type of ablation? It’s my sixth ablation! This has been an awful experience for the last four months- now weaning off atenolol, which may be feel very ill. Stayed on that medication after many other trials. I am in the US, traveling 1000 miles to Dr in

Can saline nasal spray trigger AF!
This might seem a bit out there, but since having a statin added to my prescription (includes atenolol and Rivaroxaban as well as diabetic and BP stuff) I've had ongoing catarrh and congestion. Self medicating, of course, I thought I would try a simple saline nasal spray to see if it helped, couldn't

Update on previous post
I had been taken off my Atenolol and was on no meds for BP at all for almost a week. Eventually got an appointment withGP yesterday, and this one actually listened to me. She felt my pulse, and said I was in very fast AF, which I knew already, then took my BP, saying that if it was normal or low, I was

Would like some advice please.
I made an appointment to see the GP yesterday because I was becoming really breathless. I normally walk 2 to 3 miles a day, but have been struggling to do that recently. It was the nurse I saw, who checked me over and BP was pretty high, but pulse only 42, so she went to talk to the doc, who said to

Still in HF?
Hi all, First post. This is a great forum, very informative and supportive. Diagnosed with hypertension 18 months ago, usual ACE inhibitors took 6 months to lower BP. Then came AF, on Atenolol and Eliquis, but side effects, and GP switched me to Bisoprolol. Symptoms worsened and I ended up hospitalized

Psoriasis seems to be flaring from taking atenolol
Hi, my first time posting here. Pustular psoriasis started on my little toe in 2010. It spread over my foot and to an area under my thigh. It has stayed in these areas over the years and is now more like plaque psoriasis in how it looks. In May 2022 I was put on atenolol for blood pressure. In December
