Went to my neurologist last week and he tested feet nerves are very damaged had a few falls, he suggested coming off amiodarone but by EP fights me about coming off. I don’t want to go back into AFIB after 2 conversions but the horrible effects of this drug have me turning into a recluse. I have no social life because of constant falls. Can anyone recommend a drug that might fight numbness but also work to keep me in sinus rhythm

A lot of forum members on here take Flecainide tablets, along with a small dose of beta blocker. Flecainide is the best drug I've taken to help with AF. Nothing else worked, not even Amiodarone.

I was put on Amiodarone last year it is a terrible drug! I felt that I was going to die.
I like jean was put on Flecainide 100 mg 2x per day. Very few side affects. Once you stopping takeing Amiodarone it next 9 months or more to get out of you system.
