Well spoke to Gp and my risk is low , so we are just going to give me a few days to see how I get on with just Bisoprolol 5mg in morning and Amlodipine 5mg at night .. she also suggested rivoxban just got to see how things go ... I’ve never felt so crap as I have felt these past few weeks. Fingers crossed I will feel a bit better don’t know how long it takes for flecide to get out of your system and aprixaban but they had me on loads of different drugs in September they thought I had heart spasm then from there I’ve not been the same so now we are starting at the beginning again . Thanks Jo for your comment it was helpful

Hi penny cake

I’m on dabigatran, still get headaches and pins needles a bit numb feels but this is the best one for me so far , I’m waiting for appointment to see a EP as my p-af is getting more and more plus fluttering , not on flecinide as that didn’t agree with me and the cardiologist didn’t want to upset what my gp had done . Good luck and try another I’ve been on all now I think it’s only warfarin left .
