1 week post ablation
Hi! I was diagnosed with AFib several years ago as well as atrial flutter, and PVCs . I have been on a number of meds and most recently took Flecainide 50 mg 2xday, metoprolol 12.5mg 1xday and Eliquis 2xday. I had an ablation gone 8 days ago and my EP said I could immediately drop my Flecainide

Has anyone started V-0 treatment recently with positive results?
I am due to start OBIMUTUZUMAB & VENETOCLAX it next week after Acalabrutinib caused afib and I am on it 1/2 dose with 1 beta blocker and blood thinner that cause stress and fatigue. I would like to be reassured as at the moment I am a nervous wreck. Thank you.

AF at night
hi, a brief history, I have Paroxysymal Attial fibrillation which started 2 and a half years ago. I had an ablation in December and since then I have had two episodes waking me up in the middle of the night which have lasted 40 and 20 minutes respectively and gone back into sinus rhythm without intervention

What and how do I tell my kids?
I try so hard to not let my anxiety and depression affect my family, especially my kids. But unfortunately, they see it all. The crying, lying on the floor until I get the will to move, and husband yelling “what’s wrong with you,”. I’m on a high dose of Zoloft (175mg) but the anxiety is so friggin intense

Chemo/Pluvicto or Clinical Trial?
I have stage 4, mcrpc with mets to pelvic lymph nodes and prostate. ADT (Firmagon and Zytiga) kept PSA undetectable for ~2.5 years, then PSA started to rise. I had radiation to prostate in March of this year, which did not help. I started a clinical trial in October at NYU (LAVA 1207 immunotherapy)

An exciting new clinical trial called STEM-PD is due to start in Sweden and the UK for Parkinson’s.
The symptoms of Parkinson’s are caused by the loss of dopamine-producing nerve cells or neurons in the brain; and researchers have long proposed using cell transplantation as a treatment option for replacing these lost dopamine cells. One challenge presented to research teams however has been generating

Very Nervous of Flying ✈️
Hi folks, Was at the nurse having blood taken yesterday and she asked where had I been on holiday as I was a nice colour. I told her I wasn’t going until September but was heading for Rhodes. As my Afib had been mentioned she said ‘how are you feeling about flying’. I just looked at her and said why
