Very sorry to hear of your symptoms. I can only say that your doctor may be right. I took Flecainide for a month with no side effects at all, but it does affect everyone differently.
I hope you manage to find out what is causing your problems.
Actually I'm using it since a month and it helped me to reduced irregular beats but I had a serious AF Attack on Friday and car diversion which indicate that it is not working to prevent them as per my doctor report
I have been taking Flecanide since last October & haven't has an episode since & no side effects. Was having episodes regularly & lasting 17 to 18 hours each time. Guess we all react differently. Hope you get sorted quickly.
Hi Maitha, I used to get shortness of breath on flecianide but it eased after a while, my main problem with the drug, is that I have lost the feeling in my finger tips! :/ X
