Do You Get Benign NSVT?
I am having a hard time. I get runs of NSVT about once a month and they terrify me. I'm on verapamil and metoprolol and my electrophysiologist said it's okay that I'm having the NSVT as long as it isn't prolonged, but it scares the life out of me every time and leaves me feeling very vulnerable. If anyone has any stories of hope, that would be appreciated (please nothing scary, I just can't handle it today).
NSVT is non-sustained ventricular tachycardia. It's a type of arrythmia.

Did Anyone, After An Ablation, Have An Iatrogenic ASD? If So, Did It Heal, Or Did You Have To Have It Surgically Repaired?
I just had a transesophageal echo to check the placement of the Watchman device and the report shows an Iatrogenic ASD (a hole in the septum between the left and the right atria) which was not there prior to the ablation (done at the same time as the Watchman) Just wondering how common this is and what are the long term effects. If not checking the Watchman, would probably not have known this had happened.
Have A Prescription For A CCTA With Contrast (cat Scan Of The Heart With Contrast). Did Anyone Undergo This Test And What Was It Like?
What was your experience having this test. Thank you for sharing.
I had this test last September and the technician had a little trouble starting an IV for the contrast other wise no problems my veins roll.
What Is Considered A Good Score On An Echo?
I saw my cardiologist last week and he had me do an Echo. He called me yesterday and told me that the echo was good and was better than the last one (18 months ago). I checked my app and it said the LVEF was 45%. The echo from 18 months ago was 41 - 45%. What is the context of these numbers. What is a "good" score and what isn't? Thanks in advance.
Really that sounds encouraging thank you
Signs You Did Poorly On A Nuclear Stress Test
Is Having A Second Cardiac Catheterization More Risky The Second Time. My Last One Was Aug 2023.
Still having symptoms, had another stress test and it was a normal. May need another stent, I'm more scared this time around!
Good luck 💚
Does Double Vision Have Anything To Do With Heart Issues?
I had double vision and a TIA 4 months before my heart attack but then also had two bouts of double vision the evening of my heart attack. Was going to drive myself to the ER but then the horrific jaw pain and sweating began so I knew it was an attack and woke up my husband to take me.
Yup, that's what I did. Calling 911 is the best.
