Hey Andy, I know exactly where your coming from, I have AF, Atrial Fibulation, Im on medication called Sotolol and it really knocks the wind out of you.
Mine took off one night and got up to around to 200+ I think 208 was the highest on the read out and so they gave me Amioderone which isnt very nice stuff as it tries to stop your heart.
I am stable now and am heading for an operation in early september to zap a node in my atriam that is setting it all off.
There are some great sites on AF (if thats what it was) for if you get any repeat eppisodes, PM me if you want any more info.
There are some great treatments around these days but a lot of Cardiologists dont try the new stuff if you only have AF, the treat it as if it isnt important.
It isnt nessesarilly caused by your weight but more by stress which can be caused by weight and can also be hereditary or just out of the blue.
It is relatively common, my bro in law also has it but each person is different, some need shocking to revert and others need medications, and it is more common in older people which have been under stress through their lives and then start to relax.
Glad to hear your out of hossy and back in good spirits and Im hoping good health and it wouldnt hurt any of us bulkyer blokes to lose a few pounds anyway lol.
Good luck mate and give me a hoy if you want any of the info.
By the way, 1 asprin a day can help with blood flow for every one but talk to your DR before starting it as it may not work well with other medications.
With AF or SVT you are MORE likely to stroke, not have a heart attack as such but it doesnt mean it cant be started by a heart attack, this is why I take asprin when Im not on warphrin.
Thanks NM, Ive been getting a bit nervous about it recently as Ive never been to hossy other than being born and then a few times until I was stable on the meds.
They said I should be out after one night so it all should be good, I have to take at least 2 weeks of work because my job is pretty physical and I will have to wein off the meds apparently so Im taking 3 and hopefully go away for a week or so once im feeling ok.
From what I hear it is very simple and straight forward so there shouldnt be any need to worry ( I keep telling my self that anyway).
I just hope Andy's gets sorted with out all the meds and tests that Ive had to go through, there are people that have 1 attack and never have it again and then there are people like me that just have to be difficult lol.
Thanks again NM, it makes me feel better the more people I hear that have had it.
How long was it until he noticed it was gone? or did he just not have any after the op at all?
Ooh! At their ages they need the above collar level head far, far, more than they need the below belt level one. But, it is cruel of NM to remind +middle aged warriors of their short-comings.Quote:

G'day Landyfromanotherland :)
Glad that you are out of hospital :D your other half has been keeping me informed, your Dr will tell you if you need to go on Astrix (asprin) I have 1x100ml every morning for blood thinning since I had Quad Bypass, and Zocor for Chlorestrol control, NM will correct my spelling if it is wrong:D
Mcrover: don't worry, it stresses you, those blokes that do that type of stuff are EXPERTS and do it daily, so if you stress it makes you slow to recover, that was the advise that I was given before my Bypass surgery;)
cheers
Hello all I had a similar experience last yr but was also lucky enough to survive, I worked as removalist with perfect BMI but I still ended up with blocked arteries from eating all the wrong foods, Nurses and specialist Doctors saved my life, my wife also saved my life pushing me to stay fit and eat healthy. Well done on ure recovery stay upright.
cheers
Good to see that you've been let out early on a good behaviour order..I won't bother popping in to see you tomorrow then :p..
Will keep in touch Andy and meet up for some more landy chat..hope you liked the card and the mags..
cheers
