Good News Today
I just left my EPS office with good news. I actually thought I was having problems with my new pacemaker but the office it is true. Dr Saini kept raising my ECG print out telling me how wonderful it is and my echo was the same. For all purposes, my heart on there looks the same as anyone with a normal

BP Home Machines
Hi, I know that home blood pressure machines are inaccurate when measuring whilst in arrhythmia, but does that just refer to the heart rate and not the actual BP? Thanks

Heart feels tired. Ramipril increase
Hi all Just thought I would ask..... About 5 weeks ago I noticed (particularly after eating) my heart feeling 'sluggish'. What I call 'mud for blood' - I used to get it often when I came out from open heart surgery in 2017, (two patches and a stent fitted). However it faded away over the course of a

Dehydration.
I am on Bumetanide twice daily for mild heart failure. We all know what it does but in this weather we are encouraged not to become dehydrated. I am drinking loads of fluids but should I expect more or less loo trips under these circumstances. Still no rain here.

Details around flecainide organising atrial fibrillation into an atrial tachy
Does anyone have any details around how/when this occurs and is it just a case of living with it? The nurses suggested I could try increasing flec from 50mg twice a day to 100mg, but if the flec causes the issues, I'm wondering if it would make things worse? I was put onto bisoprolol because of this

anyone heard of long p wave
had my pacemaker in on Friday. Still in hospital with New med trial is bisoprolol, flecainide, amlodipine, xarelto. They say the flecainide is causing long p wave- I was taken off of flecainide in 2019 , but I thought it was for long qt wave. On this regiment of meds, no more spiking of heart

I don't quite understand?
So what is being "Policed" here is natural progression? Surely it is quite natural to progress a subject as it tumbles around an educated group and when it runs out of steam, someone else will bring the group back on track with another "CLEAN" post! That is how a democracy works - well at least I and

TAVI pre and post experience?
I have severe aortic valve stenosis (bicuspid valve) but am asymptomatic. I am terrified of the idea of open heart surgery, or any other treatment for that matter, but considering having a Transcatheter aortic valve implementation . I would be interested to hear about experiences of pre and post implementation

Sudden increase in resting Heart Rate?
Bit puzzled by this, wondering if anyone had any clever ideas? I've tried to ring the local arrhythmia nurses but not got through yet, emailed them yesterday but no reply so far. I'm on 1x1.25mg biso and 1x50 flec twice daily which appears to have been working Ok.
Saturday I did a local park run
