Hi, has anyone had Flecainide discontinued, due to developing a Brugarda pattern on ECG, and has anyone had an Amajaline test. ?????

i had it discontinued I just couldn't stand the sickness that went with it and it stopped being effective . it made me much more poorly than the Af

I've tried it twice, recently and 10 years ago and both times it gave me mild palpitations (on a medium dose). Can't comment on the other things you mention.

Best wishes

Ten years ago, after two doses of flecainide I blanked out and two days later found myself in hospital for a week. Experiences in my head were awful and slowly wore off after a gruelling 6 weeks. Made the AF worse as well. The cardio at the time said "i have read about this but not seen it"

I know this does not answer you're question but i had to post this.
