Has any1 had any issues with heart failure since fighting cancer

  • Hi  …..  Having been on my cancer journey for over 26 years with 4 different types of cancer I have had heart issues.

    In Oct 2015 during my treatment for my second type of Lymphoma I developed A-Fib resulting in an erratic heart rate with my heart rate going from 60bpm to 200bmp in the matter of minutes……. eventually resulting in a heart attack in April 2023.
