Fibroscan CAP scores
There are a few things that I don’t understand about Fibroscan CAP scores. I have looked at the NICE 49 full guideline which can be found here: https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ng49/evidence/full-guideline-pdf-2548213310 Fibroscan CAP scores are discussed in detail on pages 62 to 74; the CAP scores

worrying heart rate through the night
I have started to wear my Fitbit to bed after my AF diagnosis but I am very worried that it says, while in AF all night, my heart beat ranges from39 to 169. I take Carvedilol 12.5mg and Apixaban 5mg twice a day. It has taken me ages to be brave enough to wear it at night but I’m thinking I might be

T3 only and heart rate
Hi all, I was started on liothyronine only 6 months ago and it has been life changing. It has resolved 4 years of debilitating symptoms, including chronic fatigue. I have faulty D102 and am a poor converter. I was finally taken off levothyroxine following abnormal ECG and tachycardia. I had a scan and

Would you like to know more about your antiarrhythmic medication?
Upon diagnosis of Atrial fibrillation (AF) many are prescribed antiarrhythmic medication(s). These help to restore the normal (sinus) heart rhythm. They work by blocking specific electrical conduction channels in the heart. Some can slow the activation of the heart muscle, and others slow the recovery

Atrial Fibrillation
I'm in the process of finding out which blood thinner is best for me. Started with bisoprolol 1.25mg twice daily and feeling ill so have changed to Edoxaban causing cold hands and feet and breathlessness. I feel that my Cardiologist hasn't taken into consideration my other health conditions, i.e. Asthma

Low O2
CAPS survivor here. Lately my O2 has been consistently between 87% -93% resting and walking. A trip to the ER the other day showed no PE and clear lungs. They want to follow up with pulmonologist but I think it's my blood flow. My lungs feel fine! I'm on warfarin. Anybody else going through this?

Two weeks after ablation and I'm on the list for a cardioversion
It's two weeks today since I had an ablation for AF. I wasn't in AF before or immediately after the procedure but felt bad on day two with racing irregular pulse, dizziness etc. I had an ecg last week which showed me to be in AF and the arrhythmia nurse has called to let me know and tell me that I've

Please check!
Earlier today I posted the link to the PBC Foundaton's Urso calculator. There are so many posts and questions relating to Urso that I thought it was important for everyone to make sure they are on the right dose. This 'calculator' is also available on the PBC app. Knowing you are taking the right dose

Orgovyx and its side effects on the heart's electrical system
I've been taking Orgovyx for over two years with few side effects. But I have been experiencing episodes of dizziness and light-headedness over the last few months. My cardiologist has diagnosed bradycardia (a slow heart beat that can cause such episodes). I will need a pacemaker. I know a side effect

INR meter
Hi all, I had a stroke when I was 27 years old and 10 years later I got diagnosed with Palindromic Rheumatism, a form or Arthritis. With both, current medication is Warfarin and X is required. I feel limited about the regular INR control lead by coagulation variability. Thinking to get an INR meter

chemo and genetic testing questions
My husband’s genetic testing of the biopsies came back. It’s 19 pages and I am having a super difficult time interpreting. His Oncologist Urologist is overwhelmed with duties and we probably won’t get reviewed at the level we need. attaching the executive summary. They said he tests positive for SPOP

This recent article (Oct 2023) has a nice high level diagram that organizes the more common prostate cancer drugs and their mechanism of action. Scroll down to Figure 1.
