All the best Wilsond. I'll be very interested to hear what's decided x

I must be tired I thought that said you had to keep off dairy and I was like WHY??!

Hope it goes OK and you can have productive discussion about yes or no and arrive at the right treatment for you

Traveling at the moment and limited internet access - hope the details reached you time. Worth asking about even if nothing comes of it.

Best,

Paul

Overall happy,not quite what I was hoping for. My ecg was fine,my bo was 130/63 so thats great.I had seen him at Xmas and we discussed whether I should still be considered for an ablation,had to keep a diary this past month.The dr I saw today was quite young and seemed a little over cautious,to be honestbitnwas quite dificult to understand him as well,im glad I took my friend along with me!

He wants me to remain on the list,review in 6 months and go back on flecanide as a dai!y dose of 50g twice a day,as on my diary I had a few episodes of Af which began during the night.I dont get many,and they are not violent,and stop with a singke dose of flecanide.

So i am going to wait to see what DR Osman thinks,as we agreed before tomuse flec as a Pip!!

Hope you are well and enjoying the sun xxxx

I was prescribed 100mg daily like you by the cardiologist but spoke to my GP and said I was unhappy taking flecainide daily considering I was only having an episode every two/three months. He agreed and I started using it as a PIP. I feel much happier, and although I will never get back to the days when I took no drugs whatsoever, taking less with no side effects can only be a good thing! x

PS In the middle of a long long drive through France and Spain - our Santander - Portsmouth ferry was cancelled giving us four days notice. The French leg is tomorrow. But yes, once Spain heated up a bit (it was bitterly cold when we arrived) it was lovely.

Thank you very much for this Irene,thats how I feel.In usual circumstances,Im only getting shortish ,low level episodes 2/3 times a month.At present Im getting rather more,as we have been disturbed a lot in the middle of thr night for several hours by our very frail old dog...affecting me.

Spain sounds nice! Take care Irene.Sorry for late reply,our house phone system has been very hit n miss and interferes with our internet xx
