Pacemaker
Good morning so for months I have had feelings of fainting and hardly left my home. Anyway I finally had ecg echocardigram and R test. Saw my cardiologist yesterday and he said that I am now bracycardic as well as having Af so will need a pace maker. Bit of a shock. Also to immediately cut my propanalol

Anyone else had problems with changing appointments?
I have now calmed down so can write sensibly, has anyone else experienced problems when trying to re-arrange hospital appointments? I go annually for an ECG where they scan your chest area with the gel and it makes funny noises and I always where my eardefenders as it creeps me out. Usually get a letter

Extreme pain in right jaw, teeth and neck
A week ago my husband began to feel a numbness along his right jaw line from his earlobe to his chin. The numbness turned into pain and the right lower teeth became painful as well. We went to dentist for x-rays which showed nothing. We then went to an oral surgeon for more x-rays which showed nothing

Persistant AF but the irregular irregular variety.
Diagnosed April 23 via ECG with persistant AF but not the high pulse rate variety most members seem to have. Mine is always irregular and my pulse constantly ranges between 60 and 90. Not particularly aware of it. Prescribed Nebivilol as beta blocker and Edoxoban as anti coagulant. Marginal Stage 1

Seeking reassurance post-cardioversion
Hi everyone, As I've posted before, I had a DCCV on Tuesday of last week after being in Atrial Flutter for 6 weeks - 2 months. The flutter has come about after open heart surgery to repair a large hole in my heart. My levels of anxiety about the Flutter returning are variable, however much I try not

Previously when speaking to GP they brushed it off as long covid. Now two years later i did running and box steps ups- my hr went to 200+ with some chest tightness. I

Slow recovery and set backs after angiogram and stent
I had an angiogram and stent inserted in late July after three weeks of angina. It was diagnosed as uncontrolled angina, it came on rapidly over three weeks and got worse very quickly. I suspected that is what it was and was happy with what was done and how quickly they did it, arrived 10am, stent inserted

Flare confirmed with PET scan
This is an update which I promised from my previous post and I have some questions at the end. About a month ago I reported that I had stopped Tocilizumab and I was waiting to see if the GCA had gone into remission. I had no GCA symptoms and no eye problems confirmed by the ophthalmologist. I felt better

This coach is not suitable for my husbands mobility

Breathlessness update
Thanks to the advice you gave me about other reasons for breathlessness than the Pred. I saw a senior GP in the same practice yesterday. He listened and checked my chest and heart and has organised an x-ray, blood tests and ECG and heart muscle test because he thinks it might be mild Atrial Frib.

Why not give Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) as Adjunctive Therapy a Try?
I am thinking this will likely be my last post, unless something dramatic shakes out. Remember LTC CHESTY PULLER'S, USMC, comment, Battle of the Chosin Resvoir, North Korea, 1950. "The bas..... are in front of us and at our rear. They are on our right flank and our left flank. They won't get

Constant anxiety since Atrial flutter diagnosis
Hi there. I was diagnosed with AFL 15 months ago after a visit to A & E when I woke up one morning with palpitations heartbeat of 140 and feeling like I was going to pass out.
