I Was Wondering If Buying An Apple Watch For My Mom Is A Good Idea? I've Heard It Can Be Very Useful To Monitor The ECGs And Blood Oxygen.

My mom is currently suffering dealing with heart issues, mainly atrial fibrillation. So I want to buy her an Apple Watch, but wanted to make sure it's a good idea. I read this article (https://www.readmyecg.co/post/a-cardiologists-g... ) from a cardiologist where it says the watch has some really good features, but occasionally could be wrong and increase anxiety. I don't want her to get more anxious, so I'm confused.

Anyone have any thoughts? Agree or disagree with me on this

Curious. For Those Who’ve Had Multiple Heart Attacks, How Long Between Your First And The Others.

Exhaustion Returned. Can’t Find The Drive Or Energy To Exercise Like I Had Been. Gaining Weight.

Triple Bypass 6 months ago. All had been going well with recovery and rehab. Did Cardiac Rehab with gusto and great outcome. Maintained diet and continued exercising. Weight was good. The last 3-4 weeks I have not been able to muster the drive, energy or determination to exercise. I know I need to exercise. I know I have to exercise for the sake of my heart’s recovery and health. Can’t break the chains. Is this the 6 month syndrome I’ve heard about. How do I go about getting back on track… read more

Pacemakers

Why do doctors recommend pacemakers? I have had Bradycardia for a few years now. My resting heart rate is in low 50's. I stay pretty active, exercise, diet is good, weight is great, blood pressure under control, EF 68%, cholesterol LDL is 88, 44 HDL, trig 170, walk a little over a mile 7 days a week and try to Golf a few times a week.

Anyone Taking Meds For A Fib?

I've been prescribed Pradaxa for A Fib. I have had a few strokes that have left me numb on the left side, from toe to arm and covering half of front and half of back. Wondering if it will ever go away. Dr. prescribed Pradaxa, 150 mg. twice a day to stop the strokes. Am also on Plavix. Pradaxa turned my stools black when I took it the first time, so I stopped it. They didn't find blood in my stool, but don't know what caused it. Doctor wants me to start Pradaxa again this month and I am fearful… read more

What Exactly IS 'Heart Healthy' Diet In 2021?

This seems to change by the month (hour).

Is Olive Oil good for you or is it from the devil
Avocados are healthy and you should eat 1 a day.
If you glance at an avocado at the store it will literally come over and kick your ass....
Bacon is safe. Bacon will make your heart explode.
LDL needs to be low.
no wait, LDL can be high IF your HDL is high.
Even doctors don't agree.
Low fat is best for your heart / No it depends on the type of fat / Actually low fat was a scam.
Eat healthy grains, no… read more
