I took amiodarone for a year but the sick feeling was getting worse so my consultant told me to stop taking. It is now 4 weeks since I stopped but I sick all day every day.

Does anyone else feel like this?

I suggest that you discuss this with your GP. Feeling nauseous all the time is not healthy.

I took Amiodarone too. I stuck it for 6 weeks as I had a bad reaction to it. It caused me to have a hot and burning rash on my feet. I felt nauseous too and felt better after a week or two. You have more in your system with taking it for 12 months. It's a very strong drug and takes months to leave your body. Just be patient it will go eventually. What do you do about your nausea? I found nibbling a ginger biscuit helped me.
