I started my digoxin today. (So far so good). I have been holding on to it for a week. I was afraid to take it. Lol. I just hate taking meds at all!!! Being on the verapamil was bad enough. Fortunately I work with some amazing family Drs who made me feel more at ease. So we will see how it goes until i see the EP on the 25th. I pray and hope everyone else is doing good.

RainingCatz, Rx = Prescription.

Afib2012,

I'm with you. I have never liked taking meds. My wife used to scream at me when I was hurting and refused to take pain killers or even aspirin, Then all of this started and now I have to have a pill container to keep track of all the pills I have to take. Hope this new meds works for you.

Thanks. Now I know :)

I was on Digoxin a few years ago and wasn't good on them. Flecainide and Verapamil suits me, but we're all different. Hope it works out fine for you.
