Alex: I went to an Orthopedic doctor yesterday, they took an x-ray of both shoulders, I know it won't show the soft tissue but the doc said that the ball and socket look good, no bulging or shifting so that indicates that there isn't any tear. I will be going for therapy starting next week, I also was prescribed a steroid which I don't really like taking but I will for a short tby Elizabeth - GENERAL HEALTH FORUM
Thank you Shannon, I will take this drug but I can't take six today, I will try 1/2 the amount and see how I handle it. I know you are a very busy man, I will wait for the weekend to hear from you, I also will see how this drug is affecting me, again thank you. Lizby Elizabeth - AFIBBERS FORUM
Shannon, George and all: Well, I am back from the doctor--I have both shoulders that hurt, my right one more so, left not as bad. They x-rayed my shoulders, the doctor said that it doesn't look as though I have any tears, I asked how could he tell as X-rays don't show soft tissue, he said that they can tell by the way the bone fits into the socket, he said the fit was good, no bulgeby Elizabeth - AFIBBERS FORUM
Shannon and all: I am going to the doctor tomorrow for my shoulder (roto cuff injury) if they need some kind of x-ray what would be the safest for me, I have a pacemaker, I know I can't have an MRI, I know they do an arthrography of the shoulder, guess they use contrast dyes and radiation, would this method be ok. thanks Lizby Elizabeth - AFIBBERS FORUM
Sam: I hope I understand the exercise correctly, I have done a few today, I have both shoulders hurting, my right one is much worse. I don't know if there is anything I can do for my groin area, both sides, it is painful as well. I have an appointment with a doctor this coming Monday. If you have anymore tips for me, I will appreciate it. Lizby Elizabeth - GENERAL HEALTH FORUM
Jim: I get episodes of AF once maybe every 2 months, I cannot take Coumadin (blood thinner) so my EP says to take a baby aspirin. Blood thinners can be as problematic as aspirin, read and listen but in the end you need to evaluate your own situation. Lizby Elizabeth - AFIBBERS FORUM
Thanks for all the comments but nothing seems to be working except for motrin or aspirin, which lasts for about 6 hours. I just can't go on this way any longer, I don't want to be taking drugs, but I am having too much pain. I am making an appointment with a doctor tomorrow. It has been 3 weeks and I am not any better, so I will see what happens. Since I have a pace maker I cannot hby Elizabeth - GENERAL HEALTH FORUM
Todd; Hi, I am doing the exercise that the doctor recommended and showed, very simple, I will do this a number of times per day and see what happens, I do not want any surgery. About the light therapy, I wonder if anyone on here has tried that and has worked for muscle pain, if so, I will get it, it is around 180.00 so I don't want to buy it and it doesn't work.

Shannon: It is my right shoulder that is very painful, If I understand you correctly I am to grab my opposite shoulder== left arm grabbing my right shoulder and trying to bring my left arm up, ditto with the other side. I can grab my right shoulder with my left hand and am able to bring my left arm up, however when I do the opposite---grabbing my left shoulder with my right arm, I cannot liftby Elizabeth - GENERAL HEALTH FORUM
About a week and a half ago I dug my carrots/beets out for storage, I had some very large containers to put them in. I picked up the container of beets (probably a bushel and a half) and carried it to my wheelbarrel and lifted it up into it, the other containers weren't quite as heavy but were still heavy.

Bel57 Beta Blockers can also cause hair to fall out. I have used Synthroid since I became hypo, due to RAI for Graves disease (an over active thyroid). This was done in 1993, I didn't have any AF until l998, this was due to taking too much thyroid hormone. I had said to my pharmacist that I was feeling tried and he said to increase my thyroid med., I did and went into AF. I have neveby Elizabeth - AFIBBERS FORUM
Alex: I have a Holistic doctor and he uses the RBC test, I asked him about the Exact test, which is said on this board to be the best, my doctor told me that he had used the test and found it not to be accurate, so that is good enough for me. Lizby Elizabeth - GENERAL HEALTH FORUM
Wall street is to blame for everything (according to you) but when Wall street falls it doesn't bode well for our economy and the world' s economy, what is so wrong about making money and having a business that makes money, that is the American dream.

Peggy: Thank you for your reply, I get AF every two months or so and just take aspirin, I was surprised to read that you are taking a blood thinner. It does worry me sometimes about taking or not taking a blood thinner, some years ago I did take Coumadin for a few months and got a bad reaction so my doc. said not to take it and take aspirin.

Well it isn't exactly true about "the anti-arrythmic midications are toxic and they all eventually lose their efficacy.", I have taken one propafenone at night before bed and it is still working, George N. takes an anti-arrhythmic drug if needed and it works for him as well, we all do what we think is best for us. lizby Elizabeth - AFIBBERS FORUM

Anti-fib Yes, I did get a pace maker, I apparently only use it about 3% of the time, I am glad I have it because I no longer have the fear of my heart rate dropping so low, almost flat lining, when going into NSR from AF. I think what happened to me because of the beta-blocker is that it caused me to become hypo-thyroid which placed a burden on my heart when in AF and the shift from AF to NSRby Elizabeth - AFIBBERS FORUM
I don't have any problems with my gut but I would like to get my BP just a little lower, I don't take any meds for it and I don't want to and if taking a probiotic could bring it down 10 points that would be great.

A few nights ago I was watching the T.V. program Dr. Oz, he was speaking with another doctor about new information about blood pressure.

When I first got AF I went to my regular medical doctor, he prescribed Atenelol, a beta blocker, 25 mg. I took it for a few months and it made me feel tried, no energy--I was also on thyroid meds, the beta blocker caused me to become hypo, it apparently blocked the thyroid hormone. I then started to almost black out when going from AF to NSR, I was diagnosed with a heart block and needed a pacby Elizabeth - AFIBBERS FORUM
Shannon: It appears that you went into a bad run of AF because of the drug Flecanide, my EP doesn't prescribe it, he doesn't seem confortable with it. I had my first taste of AF in 1996 because of taking too high a dose of my thyroid drug, I sometimes go for a few months without an episode, it at least hasn't gotten any worse during all these years.
