Just recovered from bout on Pneumonia which unfortunately triggered an AF episode. Not had an attack for 5 years and have a PIP of flecainide for such occurrences but due to feeling unwell never took the flecainide. Saw the Cardiologist last week and he wants to go for Cardioversion instead of PIP treatment with Flecainide as he feels it wont work know as heart been in AF for over a week. Put me on Bioprisol and a blood thinning medication for now until I get my appointment. Anybody else had similar issues and why not to use flecainide ?
