morning all

I’m taking 5mg bisop and 200mg flec and on Rivaoxiban per day

now in permanent AF after 2 ablations .

Does anyone else suffer with just a cold right hand when temperature drops .

Everything else is fairly ok just the right hand that suffers

thanks

Matt

Only since an angiogram damaged the right radial artery. No pulse in that wrist so RH white compared with Left.

I also had damage to the radial artery when having my angiogram two fingers often go blue

They told me one in five thousand. No pulse in that wrist which is fun tormenting doctors who can't find it.

I do sometimes, probably bisoptolol side effect on same dose as you, pharmacist review a while ago agreed

Both my hands are freezing,also my nose. I take 7.5mg Bisoprolo along with a host of other meds. My dose was increased recently due to recent attack of AF/SVT and atrial flutter. I have noticed my nose has started to turn Blue, I have the Cardiologist on the 24/1 so will tell them the issue.

I’ve had a ablation in the past and have a heart issue, so hopefully I’ll have another ablation and get my meds reduced.

Sounds like Raynaud's Syndrome.

just googled Raynauds, I will mention it to the Doctors, i do get a terrible tingling in my nose now and again generally when I’m relaxed or walking in the cold ! I thought it was a side effect of my medication .

My right hand gets very cold, I’m on Bisoprolol and Apixaban.

Yes I think there is some connection with Flecainide (I'm on 200mgs also) but not sure how much. I have always had (pre - AF) a bit of an issue with cold hands and now particularly notice this on the tops of the hands when I am working on the computer. I also used to experience a cold nose but not in the last couple of years maybe that is because I have been improving my breathing through nose rather than mouth.

I used to take Bisoprolol and Flecainide and ended up with Reynaud’s. Fortunately I don’t have to take them anymore, but I still have the Reynaud’s if my right hand gets too cold.
