Heart Diseases

i have had atrial fib since i was very young but was not officailly diagnosed until 1999 ( i would have the attacks but heart rate would convert over b4 i got to er so i was not getting on monitors quick enough) I am very knowledged on what it is and what it is all about. i just wonder how many ppl honestly without looking it up know what it is. no one i talk n person knows or understands when i try to explain. a simple no will be fine if you dont and a yes is fine if you do , but please be honest! its a small survey

My daughter is 1 month old and she has mild pulmonary stenosis. My husbands sister was born with a heart problem, his mother died from heart failure, and his cousin just died from heart failure. These are all women, and all the women on his side of the family have heart problems. Could my daughter's heart problem be genetic?

my brother was just admitted into the hospital because he was having chest pains and his blood pressure was going up and down and then back up and then back down. (really quickly, within a matter of minutes). The doctors will not tell us anything. So what would the blood pressure rising and then falling be from?

This only affects me when I have been sitting or lying down, so when I get up, I find it hard to walk, more likely I am limping very badly and usually one foot is worse than the other.

Most of the pain is round the ankle, and sometimes seams like cramp.

Dont know if my other problem has anything to do with recent problem, and work A few years ago was told that I have a slow heart, which is being monitored, and my job does involve a lot of walking about, usually 7hrs a day,and 5 days out of 7 days

Ok, my bf complains of chest pains. He has been to doctors after doctors and took extensive tests but they can't figure out what is wrong with him. The thing is, the way he discribes the pain sounds to be like heart-attach but i dont know why doctors can't seem to detect it. I have been really worried about him because though this has been going on for a long time now, it has become severe the past couple of months. One thing i noticed is that whenever he seems stressed out or mad or gets turtlled (like if someone scares him or has a nightmare or something) it worsens. I am really worried about him, and he refuses to go see anymore doctors because he lost hope. Just the other day he began to tell me that he has a feeling he wont live long time, and he wanted to tell me what he'd like me to do if his day comes to an end. i couldnt handle hearing this, so i told him not to mention that kind of stuff and that he can't lose hope. im scared and i know that he is too, i dont know what to do.

I was watching Dr. G and she was talking about a condition when your heart will grow additional veins for blood flow if one of the major veins gets clogged or is not flowing properly. Does anyone know the name of that condition?
