Hi! May someone can help me ! I was diagnosed with a fib a year ago. I was put on bisoprolol, small dose 2.5. And my pill in a pocket flecinide . I 1 year i had 4 episodes , and each time end up in hospital. Since i was diagnosed my life become very bad quality. Always tired , but worst part is my head, constant buzzing , head fog , clumsiness , anxiety . Wonder if any one having similar problem ? Can bisoprolol make my head foggy and buzzing . Or its afib ? Cant figure it out . Head buzz ines so strong, i can't live my life normally. Any advice please!

Best wishes

Janna

Many reports on AFA forum on HU about your symptoms being associated with bisoprolol. Apparently it can take weeks to get off even a small dose. And occasionally months for withdrawal effects to disappear. Not all beta blockers get in the brain so these don’t cause all the same side effects.Calcium channel blockers are an alternative to beta blockers for AF

Maybe your arrhythmia nurse can advise about regular flecainide.
