Can any of you tell me your experience with the drug Amiodorone? My cardiologist, which I have not seen yet is planning on putting me on it! My last pacemaker check up showed that I had tachycardia during afib. I’ve had afib for years (24+) two ablations, no help. Only drugs are bisoprolol and apixaban. Other health issues are low thyroid, taking eltroxin for that and I have polycythemia, which has been treated with blood drawing every couple of months. I’m 75 year old female otherwise in pretty fair shape.
Thank you my Afibber friends!

I too have underactive thyroid and amiodarone iss making that worse though I feel fine. I also have the halo effect in my vision at night BUT amiodarone is giving me my life back after three years where I had three failed ablations and ten cardioversions. I'm now running, cycling etc and feeding great. Another ablation probably next year but making the most of it while I can. If I was older I'd just stay on it tbh xxx
