Confused about types of unusual episodes in my body

[Mayser]

Hey im a bit lost im experiencing all sorts of episodes in my body tingling in my legs and feet twitching a heaviness in my head cardiologist changed my meds 8 times had two cardio version procedures and im in afib anybody experiencing this types of effects

No, I've had AF for 14 years and have never experienced what you describe. I must admit I'm wondering how you would be without any medication for your AF, other than your anticoagulant. Medication doesn't really agree with me and it took me a long time to discover that. Perhaps you could just take the pills you have when you get an attack. Please seek advice from your cardiologist before making any changes.

Thank you for getting back to me Jean im just at my wits end my quality of life is just not good at all

[jeanjeannie50 in reply to Mayser]

I wonder if the meds are making things worse for you? What do you think? I'm sensitive to fillings and colouring's in drugs.

Hey Jean thanks again for getting back to me again i just dont understand that im experiencing these episodes and ive told them this they are more or less saying its in my head and that i couldn't be experiencing this to all the drugs they have put me on and changed them because im having these side effects im very confused because im left with dealing with it myself i began doing mindfulness meditation and physcotherapy which helping i was having panic attacks also i dont see the cardiologist until late April

They said it could be phycosermetic but i know my body i dont smoke or drink im very fit for my age some of the doctors are to clinical and dont have people skills im left trying to find the light switch in a dark room

[Mayser in reply to Mayser]

What do you mean fillings and colours

[jeanjeannie50 in reply to Mayser]

When the tablets are formed they have other things added to make up the bulk of the pill. Look at the back of one of the boxes your pills are in and you'll see there are additions other than the drug that should help. Some tablets also have colouring added.
