update on speaking with nurse.

[Electricblue1]

So I had to do fibricheck for a week for Nurse and apart from one bad episode of AFIB all the others are eptopics. I’ve upped my Bisoprolol for now if that don’t work then I have to up the flecainide. That’s the one I don’t want to up. I have been given the all clear to get back to my HGV job so that’s a bonus. Heart still a bit flippy. 🤞it stays calm .

Hi

My bisoprolol was to start with was 10mg, & I’d only have the Flecainide as a pip, this was only to see what suited me best. So this didn’t do a lot for me & we changed to 100mg twice a day of the flecainide & dropped the bisoprolol down to 7.5, again the bisoprolol was too high so we finally got on track with 5mg, had 50mg of Flecainide as my pip. I still get really tired but nowhere near as much as I did before.

Hope everything works out ok for your.

thank you. The bisoprolol for me if it’s too higher dose just makes me tired and I don’t like it but i think a lot of the meds do that.

Can I ask Electricblue1, if you’re not having regular episodes why are you increasing your bisoporol dosage?

[Electricblue1 in reply to Alfc]

hello, I keep getting HHR regularly so the nurse asked me to do a heart reading for a week and she said it’s eptopics. My dose of bisoprolol was only 1.25 once a day so was too low so now I’ve upped it to twice a day.
