Something I forgot to mention

I wrote about Toprol (Metoprol) a few minutes ago. I forgot to mention that I also take Flecainide, 100 mg. twice a day.

Just a little tip: you can easily edit a post. Simply click 'more' under it, then 'edit'.

Another tip, you can also reply to your original post with further info, that will also bring it back to the top of the timeline whereas an edit won’t. I use both depending on how long since posting or replying.

Edit: PS, you can also delete the post from the More option but I wouldn’t use that after you’ve had replies.

Hi there,

Yes I Take Flecainide 100 mg twice daily and it does little for me ! I had a pacemaker fitted before Christmas which though has curbed somewhat the long spells of disturbingly long bouts of AF, it’s not eradicated it. I am going to go on quite a high dose of propranolol from next . Watch this space ! And have a great New Year 2024

Thanks for your reply. Happy New Year. How long have you taken Flec. and how long have you experienced Afib?

Have you tried "lifestyle modification" and weight loss, etc?

Did Flec. do anything at all to alleviate your situation?
