A letter has finally arrived! Trigeminy?!
Well, the ECG was on the 8/9 & the letter was dictated on the 30/9. It was then typed on the 5/10 & has arrived today. Ventricular bigeminy but the letter says trigeminy too?! Which appears to be an electrical issue with my heart? One consultant is more concerned with the electrical side of cardiology

This paper includes: [i]Indeed the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry working group for Standardization of Thyroid Function Tests acknowledged the need for standardization of the fT4 assay.[/i] Have to say, in my facetious moments, I have wonder what the IFCCSTFT group do when they are

I lost hope and can’t do this anymore
I just want a good night sleep I just want to feel okay I’m tired of worrying so much like the doctors missed something not even a heart attack I’m now worried that I have an aortic dissection because of such weird pains I get in my chest back stomach being able to lay there and feel my heart beat in

Awaiting diagnosis of Heart Failure
My husband had a Mitral and Tricuspid Valve repair in June 2020, however his AF could not be treated as it had been happening for too long (they discovered the valve problems because AF was found on an ECG some 18 months prior to the operation). He has been struggling with his breathing for some months

Slow growing embryo miscarriage
I was wondering if anyone has had a miscarriage with a slow growing embryo? Initially my HCGs were strong and going well. Had a bit of dark brown discharge so went to the EPU at 5 weeks. Sac visible but that was all. At 6 weeks I was told I had a blighted ovum then 2 days later a fetal pole was visible

Feeling Really down
Sorry, but a lot of members here will know that this is not me to moan. I've been in hospital with pneumonia, high heart rate and covid. It all started at the beginning of September when I awoke one morning with a soreness in my heart. I thought this is it I'm having a heart attack, dialled 999 and paramedics

Breathless and clammy
I suffered a heart attack in Spain on the 6th March 2022, I had 2 stents fitted as my right artery was completely blocked and my left artery was very narrow. I have recovered well, but just recently I have become breathless even when just having a conversation, also a feeling of being very clammy a few

Did I have a misdiagnosed heart attack?
I went to the ED a while back for flu-like symptoms and fever after a surgery. They admitted me due to elevated troponin levels (243) and tachycardia at rest (118bpm). I had an EKG, echo, and chest xray, but was only told they looked "fine". I was eventually discharged with the one word diagnosis "pericarditis

What happens next please?
Advice sought from those further on the path please. I had a successful cardio version in July after 6.5 months of high rate permanent AF not well controlled by digoxin, bisoprolol, furosemide, and apixaban. I was told to just stop the digoxin after the cardio version which left me on 10mg of bisoprolol
