AF and Heart Parameters
I experienced AF first in 2012. It was recorded in Holter Monitoring. On medication since then. Holter Monitoring done once in a year. No episode recorded. Actually my episodes occur suddenly last for few seconds. ECG sometimes show tachycardia, Echocardiography is normal, TMT recent time is negative

Looking to hear positive stories on Efflexor for both anxiety and depression & comfort. Please no horror stories, as I'd trigger me!
Hi, I've been on Sertraline / Zoloft for 3 years, and Mirtazapine 15mg for sleeping. I'm relapsing to a situation similar to that of 2021. The lady three months I've had crippling anxiety, deep fear, panic since the challenges that I'm currently facing seem extremely difficult for me to overcome (they're

I also do not want to be here anymore
I have had a rough life. Like Lemony Snickets series of unfortunate events….I suffered every abuse here. I have no friends and terrible social anxiety. I just want my job here done. I know where we go after is a trillion times better. I had a spiritual awakening and found bliss (years ago)but stepped

Why are
clinical
trials
our only option for the most part, why does our treatments cause more mutations and a cancer that is harder to treat, at some point, our cancer will outpace our options, and we will have none.

I’m considering another ablation in November by one of the top doctors in the country. I Heard that sometimes too many oblations can cause a stiff heart which I am

2 months post ablation and frequent extrasystoles.
So I'm 2 months from my 1st ablation and supposed to now stop taking Flecainide but I seem to be permanently having extrasystoles, having hardly had them at all previously. They are fairly asymptomatic with me only sometimes feeling palpitations. I've also had a couple of Afib episodes but it's the sudden

Devastated and frustrated
My husband is now not having sex with me at all it has been a month since we have had sex. I understand that his back has been hurting him but that hasn’t stopped him and his live in girlfriend from having sex. He tells me it’s because she can do all the work and he doesn’t have to do anything. He

Splenomegaly in Polycythemia Vera: Its Clinical Significance and its Relation to Symptoms
Background: Splenomegaly (SPML) in PV has been considered a diagnostic hallmark, associated with symptoms, affected clinical trial design, and influenced governmental approval of ropeginterferon α-2b. Whether SPML affects myelofibrosis-free and overall survival (MFS and OS) is unknown. Because of uncertainty

Sinus rhythm with supraventricular ectopy.
Last December my Kardia mobile saw AFIB when I was sitting on a plane coming back from Egypt. It is not the first time, in fact there have been dozens of times when I have seen it. I went to the GP and he sent the kardia output to the cardiologist. Several cardiologists disagreed about the kardia

Cardiac Ablation Looks Successful!
I was diagnosed with Paroxysmal Afib in April of 2022. During my annual physical my PCP heard what he thought was a murmur, and called in a consult. After testing the afib was confirmed. I never noticed it, but started monitoring with a smartwatch and began to feel the episodes as they progressed. This
