atrial fibrillation then high heart rate
I started in AF last week and after 5 days of AF I have now gone into a regular high heart rate for the past 2 days. Under the instruction of the arrhythmia nurse I have increased my bisoprolol but it doesn’t seem to helping much. I have an appointment on Wednesday to discuss treatment plan while I

Half moons on fingers
Hey guys, I have an underactive thyroid and know the importance of getting vitamin levela checked Is it true that lack of or small half moons can be a sign of deficiencies? Just took a photo or my fingers, what do people think? If zoomed in, can just about see half moon on some

Advice needed on thyroxine management
I am hoping someone can advise me about my thyroxine dose. Here's a little background: In September 2023, I was underweight and having trouble gaining weight and suffering from anxiety. I had been on 75mcg of levothyroxine daily for an underactive thyroid. I had recently developed pins and needles

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

Prednisone for treatment of AIG
I've just been started on Prednisone or Prednisolone, immunosuppressant steroids, for treatment of Autoimmune Gastritis/autoimmune PA. This has recently, within the last few years been shown to possibly heal AIG, although not entirely cure. It is also used to prevention immune system rejection of organ

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

sulfasalazine side effects
Hi. I am on sulfasalazine for mixed connective tissue disease (similar to rheumatoid arthritis and lupus), which I started taking again after many years of my disease being in remission. I was initially on sulfasalazine 10 years ago and it is a horrid medication. Was, and am again, terribly dizzy

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?

Hi everyone, I’m looking for any information about bloods and Thyroid please. I was diagnosed in 2017 with chronic pain, chronic fatigue and osteoarthritis. I have tried all pain medications the NHS has, and nothing touches the pain. I have had horrendous pain in my feet, left one for over a year,

updated journey
I’m getting so frustrated with this underactive thyroid. My only symptom before I was diagnosed again was unexplained weight gain. I had put on half a stone but hadn’t changed any habits. After starting on levothyroxine I put on another 2 stone. This may have been made worse due to all my joints seizing

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

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

Gallbladder
Has anyone here had their gallbladder removed after also having had a cabg? How did you get on working out what to eat and what not to eat? I wasn't given a diet sheet, only advised to stick to a low fat diet with plenty fruit and veg. I'm finding I'm eating the sane things all the time! Fish and chicken

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
