I was diagnosed with AF last December, put on amlopidine, apixaban and digoxin. minimal doses. am getting very unbalanced, and tend to falling, and very lethargic and depressed. is this usual, due to over prescription for drugs, or simply age (86)? need
reassurance that one day I'll be me again one day!
Your doing well at 86! Don't go waiting for life. Use all you have is my advice. That said speak to the doctor who prescribed the drugs as we are not medically trained and without the full story it is not easy to advise.
t hits what I'm trying to do, but the muscles have slowed up considerably, which is considerably annoying. interesting is the no. of people,
who juggle their pills, thus taking control of their lives. p.s. my dad made 103, thanks to S.African sunshine and home grown veggies.
Some like anticoagulants must NEVER be juggled.
whatabout Digoxin? I know the Amloxioen 2 per day, must notbe changed.
Any treatment for high blood pressure can cause unsteadiness because of a low blood pressure on standing. Are you keeping well hydrated?
Digoxin can uncommonly cause depression according to the NICE website. You can get a blood test to check the level of digoxin is safe.
How about asking for a call back from your GP to discuss your tablets?
thank you so much. yes it,s first thing in the morning when i stagger, also when bending forward e.g. to tie shoelaces. the depression lifts if I can get out for walk in the sun. all was OK when on as lower dose of digoxin.
I had been warned that getting the drug balance right was tricky, and individual, like a family recipe for spaghetti bolognese
.
I have AF I tried Digoxin but it did nothing for me, I am on Verapamil and I am sitting at 60/80. .....
