Hiya EB1.

I didn't respond to your first post - just seen it.

From my experience flec works wonders - for me anyway (and for many others). Please note there are many 'scare' stories online. Half of them are BS.

Good luck with it - don't be put off as it can work wonders. I wouldn't be in sinus now without it. I'm sure it might help you - any doubts contact your GP of course.

Good luck and don't worry.

Hi , thank you for the reply, do you know if it affects mood by any chance, I don’t know if it’s the pills or if it’s my whole situation with my health that’s doing it.

Hiya EB1.

I can't say flec has ever affected my mood (as far as I'm aware).

You wrote

"or if it’s my whole situation with my health that’s doing it"

There could be your answer. Easy to say but try and stay positive - just think the flec might really help and you have something to look forward to. That might affect your mood and the way you feel. You'll get there - I just get a gut feeling you will.

You'll see it though - wait and see ;-)

Loads of best,

Paul

Hello Electricblue1, think I also missed your first post but can honestly say that Flec is well worth a go. I have serious doubts as to whether I’d be in sinus rhythm without it. Haven’t noticed any mood change with it either since Sept 20 when I started taking it. Unfortunately it hasn’t made me cheerful..... Good luck & stay strong. 💪

Hi EB :-) please come back and tell us how you get on with the Flecainide . I know we all react differently to medication but it is good to hear results from members .

Hi , I’ve been on it about 10 days now and so far so good, I feel a little breathless on it but I don’t know if it’s to early to see side effects yet.I have read it can make your hair fall out but I don’t know if that is common.

If things change I will update.
