I was admitted to hospital as I had a afib attack which I've never had before it only lasted 1 hour . Doc says it was because I was unwell with covid... Anyway I look

Woman had no clue she was having a heart attack until Apple Watch sent her to hospital - Diane Feenstra from Michigan
Future is here ! Heart failure is something which no can predict. It comes all of a sudden and takes away the life. Diane Feenstra from Michigan was lucky in this regard. She was alerted about abnormally high heart rate by her Apple Watch and she went to a hospital for a check up and it was a mild

Can they be treating me

After C25K - what I’m learning
Much to my surprise, I graduated a couple of weeks ago (23 June ‘21) and could not have been more delighted. So, having achieved my goal I was determined to keep running. But how to do it? Firstly I have kept reminding myself how brilliant I feel after a run. Also, how much it’s changed and improved

Week 9 Run 3 - Hey! Ho! Let's Go
Sunday 4th July 2021 When I left this morning the sun was shining and my lungs were saying I am ready to run. Once I reached my halfway point on the bridge the rain started to lash down. I had a decision to make stop and walk back and try Tuesday as no hurry to continue. As soon as I starting running

Awaiting open heart surgery for mitral valve repair/ replacement
Hi I am awaiting the above op (consultant has said 3 month wait) but have had no face to face appointments due to covid. I have so many questions about this procedure but the main one is about the recovery period? I’m a busy primary school teacher and want to know if I’m being foolish to think I will

Forgot to take my Flecainide - no adverse reaction
I usually take 200mgs/day Flecainide, the only drug I take. Yesterday for the 3rd time in 7 years I forgot to take one of x2 100gms. On the first occasion I was very worried and even cancelled an overseas business trip due to start the same day. The second time also very concerned, yesterday just uneasy

symptoms following open heart surgery
I'm 33 and had open heart surgery two months ago to repair my mitral valve. My resting heart rate before surgery used to be around 55 bpm but after surgery this jumped to 100 bpm. The doctor said this was normal and was just the heart adjusting and that it would go down over time. Over the next two months

Newbie to forums
I'm new to forums but thought I would give it a go as I'm keen to connect with people who have gone through something similar to myself. I'm 33 and was diagnosed with mitral prolapsed valve a few years back. Earlier this year I came down with endocarditis which the doctors managed to clear up but I ended
