Life Insurance- ILR/Heart Block
Hello, I know this question has been asked often on the forum, however the search function isn’t currently working for me so I thought I’d ask again! I am really struggling to get Life Insurance, I am 29 and because I have a Loop Recorder no one wants to cover me! I was told I have Heart Block

Constant arrythmias but tests have given no real answers 🤷♀️
Wondering if there is anyone else with a similar profile to me going through something similar...I'm a 34 year old female, fit (used to train muay thai 2 hrs a day) and have a super clean and balanced diet. Been having some wild ectopics last few months and it now lasts all day every day, but most particularly

had to call a ambulance
hi everyone, I felt very unwell on Saturday with new chest pain in my left hand side of my chest and found it difficult to breathe. I usually get it in the middle of my chest. My partner called an ambulance and I went into hospital. After ECG and blood tests they didn’t think it was a heart attack.

B12 and ECG
Has anyone ever had a B12 injection while hooked up to a full 12-lead (or whatever) ECG machine? Did it cause any detectable changes that seems directly due to the B12?

Hi, Apologies, I’m dreadful at remembering terminology .. I’ve had racing and irregular heart beat intermittently for a decade of more. I have a resting heart rate of 50 and low blood pressure. My afib tends to be aggressive and I usually end up in hospital. ( rate of 240 not unusual) Last time had

What would you expect?
Hi Everyone, Just thought I’d ask here as the help I’ve received on here has been invaluable. Since my Cardioversion in Jan 2022 I have been in a sinus rhythm. I was originally told prior to the Cardioversion that if 6 months after I’m still in a sinus rhythm. I would be able to come off the edoxaban

Mitral Valve Replacement - Tissue or Metal valve?
Hi all, hope your evening is going well. I had an ECG on Monday and I was told I had a leaky Mitral valve and it needs replacing. I have an angiogram next Friday. I was shocked and I'm still processing the news. I'm no athlete by any stretch of the imagination, but I have never smoked, do not drink,

Loop recorder (and other feedback)
So, a few weeks ago I passed out while sitting next to my wife - which made her panic. Short version of the story is that the episode was followed by influenza so may have been the beginning of that. Also an ECG I had shortly after passing out was normal. (FYI I am 49 and healthy). But she insisted

What is Left Atrial Rhythm and is it related to Afib?
I have paroxysmal Afib, which appears to be well managed with Flecainide and Metoprolol. I am having an unrelated medical procedure next week so my anaesthetist sent me for an ECG, which I had to drop back to her office. After getting the ECG done by a nurse at my local GP's rooms, the nurse took the

Help with feelings of despair/panic
I get physical symptoms too such as heart pounding, feeling sick, needing the loo
ect
. It's just awful, an awful awful feeling. I should mention (I hope this is not to much information) but my period came yesterday morning, do you think hormones could be adding to my emotional troubles right now?
