Heart Rhythm Conditions – Welcome to the group

Posted by Kanaaz Pereira, Connect Moderator @kanaazpereira, Feb 14, 2018

Welcome to the Heart Rhythm Conditions group on Mayo Clinic Connect.
Did you know that the average heart beats 100,000 times a day? Millions of people live with heart rhythm problems (heart arrhythmias) which occur when the electrical impulses that coordinate heartbeats don't work properly. Let's connect with each other; we can share stories and learn about coping with the challenges, and living well with abnormal heart rhythms. I invite you to follow the group. Simply click the +FOLLOW icon on the group landing page.

I'm Kanaaz (@kanaazpereira), and I'm the moderator of this group. When you post to this group, chances are you'll also be greeted by volunteer patient Mentors and fellow members. Learn more about Moderators and Mentors on Connect.

Let's chat. Why not start by introducing yourself?

This is a very positive group as I get palpitations sometimes and listening to other people helps me not to worry about them all the time. Thank you

Hi.

I'm Rita. I have had A-fib since 2016. Today I was diagnosed with A-flutter. I am looking for others who have walked this journey and will remind me to never give up.

I am grateful you are here, and that I can find a support group like this.

Grateful for you,
Rita

IF you don't feel well....generally...you may need a diagnostic run on your pacemaker. Their settings sometimes need tweaking, and maybe that's where you are. Consult your cardiologist or electrophysiologist.

Hi Rita, I'm James, but go by Tim. I had A-fib and AA-flutter this year. I tried ablations 4 times this year and several Cardio Versions and nothing worked. They put me on Amerodone and I had a terrible reaction. On Oct.21, this year I had an A V node ablation with a new Pacemaker. I've had these problems for years and I'm very optomistic for my future. Don't give up hope.
