Persistent and Permanent Atrial Fibrillation
Approximately one month ago I introduced myself to this forum. I greatly appreciated the warm welcome and the helpful responses I received to my post. I've returned with hopes of receiving some feedback from any members who have persistent or permanent Afib. I believe I've done as much research as

Anyone having B12 injections + hypothyroid?
But I have
permanent
atrial
fibrillation
anyway so my heart rate is always a bit unusual. However, I can usually spot trends and so far this is looking like a trend.

Could Afib rhythm on Kardia be misinterpreted
At the end of April I received my 14 day Zio report that showed very frequent rhythms of supraventricular ectopies and no AFib. Most heart rates averaged below 100. A few weeks later I used my Kardia on 1 lead which showed sinus rhythm with supraventricular ectopy at 64 BPM. 1 minute later I used

Enemas for constipation
I am taking flecainide and bisoprolol for my afib. The medication is doing fine but I’ve got what I believe to be Pelvic Floor dysfunction. Basically one of my rectum muscles (at exit) is contracting when it should be relaxing. I’ve got biofeedback physio on Monday but wanted to know if anyone has experience

Advice please re steroid dose following fall, facial lacerations, broken nose etc…
Hi all, yesterday I stupidly trotted across a road, my leg gave way and I ended up sliding across on my face, hitting my cheek/nose on the kerb. Been to A&E, all sorted apart from sore shoulder which is a little better today. The pain feels very specific in that I feel it only in certain positions or

How is AF and Heart Failure linked?
Although the term heart failure can sound ‘scary’ it does not mean that your heart is about to stop working! Although heart failure can be a serious condition, it only means your heart is not working as efficiently as it should be and that it needs a little help to make it work better. For further

Nebivolol 2.5mg
I started Nebivolol for my AFIB about one month ago for my heart rate! I like the drug but seem to have a lot of gas on my stomach! Has anyone else had this problem?

Define 'well controlled'
When do you decide to have an invasive procedure done? It seems like there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to Afib. I was told if medication manages your symptoms then an ablation is not necessary. What if you hate the medications? Is there a definition of well controlled? 1 episode a week?

Predicting AF 30 mins before it happens
Researchers at the University of Luxembourg (LCSB) have developed an AI which is able to predict an episode of afib 30 minutes ahead of time with around 80% accuracy. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/04/240422120707.htm [i]Prof. Jorge Goncalves, head of the Systems Control group at

cardioversion. - I felt and remember it! 😵💫😮
Had first cardioversion this past Thursday. Fairly sure I am not supposed to remember the shock and pain from the shock. It hurt so bad I tensed up, pulled a muscle in my back and bit my tongue which was bleeding when I woke up. It was one of those weird twilight zone experiences where the intensity

What is an ablasion procedure is it safe?
Diagnosed with AFIB, cardiologist has suggested for me to look into ablasion proceedure. Taking Eliquis but an expensive drug to be on. Research shows this proceedure with ablasion only 70% successful to put heart back in a normal rhythem? Has anyone had this proceedure done?

Depressing cardiology consultation
I am a 73 year old female and I have had AFib for 12 years. My problem is with rhythm, not rate. Just had a cardiology consult after going back into AFib after 18 months on Amiodarone, following my second cardioversion. Quite depressing really. Told to come off the Amiodarone, as it wasn't keeping

Warfarin and Acetaminophen ? Are there any interaction please ?!
Hello, I'm just wondering which pain medications would not interact with Warfarin please? I know anti-inflammatories are not ok. What about Panadol (Acetaminophen/Paracetamol), is this okay to take while being on Warfarin? Appreciate any information you can provide, Many thanks Rosegardens

Serious shortage of some medicines.
There is an article in today’s Guardian which refers to a serious shortage of some medicines: “Medicine shortages in England ‘beyond critical’, pharmacists warn.” No heart medications are mentioned in the article, but I wondered if anyone had experienced problems obtaining any of their regular heart
