Exercise post heart bypass
hi all I'm wanting to hear your exercise achievements post heart bypass. Prior to my bypass I was extremely active down the gym teaching hiit workouts and other exercise classes. I am still only 8 weeks post op and aged under 40 but need some good news stories of people building up their exercise

“How Does Deep Brain Stimulation Change the Course of Parkinson's Disease?”
This very recent (May 2022) review was posted elsewhere (FB) and after reading it myself (it's open access) I thought it worth re-posting here on HU - for those interested in learning more on long-term DBS outcomes. https://movementdisorders.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mds.29052?fbclid=IwAR3EaJVE5QUEQ165u7wKsneu2V3JHhs36YuQCiRHxjSrbhUXHTkr31qCafU

My mum is going to have ICD box - please share experiences :)
Hi, Until a few weeks ago, my mum didn’t (knowingly) have any heart problems but her resting heart rate went to 174 on her Fitbit and wouldn’t go down so she went to hospital. They had to give her a shock to get her heart rate down. They did an angiogram and realised she had 3 clogged arteries

Something Seems Off With my Smartwatch Heart rate Readings
I was given an IPhone Smart Watch for Christmas, but just started using it, the past couple of months. My question is with the accuracy of the heart rate readings. I usually wait at least 1 & 1/2 hours, after taking my Cartia, before I start a brisk 35-60 min. walk. Sometimes, my heart rate will register

Atrial Tachycardia
After two temporarily successful cardioversions (6 months af free each time) I had an ablation in May and all seemed to be going well. I remained happily in sinus rhythm for over three months until suddenly, out of the blue, my heart rate and blood pressure rocketed and I ended up in the Resus Department

Recovery post heart bypass.
My Grandad had a heart attack about 5 weeks ago, and subsequently was hospitalised. He then had a heart bypass just over two weeks ago, and thankfully he is now back at home. Since he came home he has struggled to sleep and has told my family and I that he is very dizzy, sick and tired. I can understand

Keyhole heart surgery.
Keyhole heart surgery. Has anyone experienced this surgery as I have found no proper information on the recovery process for this despite scouring for the information.

Update
As you were all so kind in replying to my melt down last night for which I was very grateful. Today as instructed rang my GP surgery dead on 8am ( I had numerous alarms going off to alert me to the time )to get a telephone consultation to discuss blood results and why a referral for echocardiogram.

Ectopics
Good evening. I have recently been given the option to begin Flecainide for my ectopic heartbeats or learn to live with them (I find this very difficult). I've had open heart surgery but although successful, it didn't stop the ectopics at all. I've been on bisoprolol which I don't feel has helped

Update
I diagnosed with Flutter end of June 22 after a couple of trips to A&E. prescribed Edoxaban 30mg with Bisosporol 2.5 daily reduced to 1.25 mg daily as I already have low BP. Episodes of possible Flutter are happening at least once a week. I do have etopics apparently and one ECG showed narrow tachycardia

Pace and Ablate - Symptoms of Heart Failure after pacemaker and AV node ablation
My pacemaker was inserted three weeks ago for symptomatic persistent a-fib that no longer responds to meds, cardioversion, or ablation. I had to wait for the AVN ablation since I am sensitive to silicone and the pacemaker parts are coated with it. I haven't had any rejection symptoms therefore my AV

Psychological and counselling support
My family has just had a very impactful experience, my son who is 22, had open heart surgery twice in the same month and we nearly lost him the second time around. He was in the hospital for 9 weeks all in total, but within that 9 weeks what he went through and what he saw day in day out, was patients
