Heart problems along with Hypothyroid symptoms

by flowerdivas, Nov 30, 2008 08:23PM
Hi, I hope someonen can help. I have been in the hospital for 2 months, battling with heart problems. Had 2 ablations for Afib went into Vtach, crashed 4 times, was intibated 4 times and almost died! IThey found I have a very weak mitral valve and were talking about repair or heart transplant, I am now on 2 ace inhibitors and diuretics, and of course coumadin, finally got my heart back on track with AV node severed and ICD installed. But now I am hypothyroid, with tingling feet, swollen and irritated throat,
and sore muscles, lately have a lump on my bicept like a popped muscle or tendon, very sore.
I am now on 100mcg synthroid, but am afraid they won't be able to give me a higher dose due to my terrible heart condition.
Can anyone shed some light?
thanks,
Shawna
