Quote Myticker 1) Is it possible for someone to convert from Persistent A-fib to Paroxysmal A-fib, thereby giving the conflicting Kadria Mobile results? 2) Since the Kardia Mobile results are trending towards more Normal SR than Possible A-Fib, could that be the result of the Cipro wearing off? 3) Is the Kardia Mobile accurate? Are there any known issues of it giving false positives or false ...
Paroxysmal to permanent AF – is it inevitable? KANSAS CITY, KANSAS. Atrial fibrillation (AF) usually starts out as being intermittent in nature (paroxysmal) with episodes being self-terminating, fairly short, and relatively infrequent. However, as electrical and structural remodeling takes place episodes tend to last longer and become more frequent (“afib begets afib”). Eventually ...
Along with the increase in afib frequency, this last year saw relatively frequent excessive vagal responses to 1) cold food or drink, 2) laying down, and 3) the aftermath of sexual orgasm. These excessive vagal responses included a slow heart beat of around 40 BPM, sometimes accompanied with a significant number of ectopic beats and sometimes afib.
Gentlefolk, I train at a gym regularly each week and supplement occasionally with creatine though not heavily continuously. I just bought a new big jar and somehow something came up about creatine supplementation involvement with atrial fibrillation. I looked it up in more detail and there is lots
I went off the Amniodarone and when the afib episodes came back I was training for 2 marathons. Bad move on my part, Endurance exercise does cause afib in me and I just had to realize that I'm getting older and with my heart issues endurance exercise is not a good thing for me. I continued for the past 4 years to have occasional afib.
The average age of the study participants was 61 years (range of 51-71 years); they had suffered from afib for 1-7 years, had failed 2-4 class I or class II antiarrhythmic drugs, and experienced episodes that self-converted in less than 24 hours. Their average left atrial diameter was 35 mm (range of 25-45 mm).
After my first ablation, I went 13 years without a blood thinner. Then afib came back and a second ablation, then off blood thinners after a month or so. THEN a bilateral pulmonary embolism (blood clots in the lungs), but no source could be found. So now, even though my afib isn't happening, I am on Eliquis for life at my Dr's recommendation. I work out often and there are a couple of ...
