Xatral, an alpha blocker does it elevate heart rate?
am in permanent Af and take 190 mg Dilzem per day. Heart rate is controlled and hovers around sixties. My urologist prescribed Xartal an alpha blocker to manage my bladder muscle weakness which is causing urinary difficulties. Took 10 mg/ day for 10 days and saw improvement of urine flow and stream.

Heart rate too high
Phoned hospital who told me to take
Adizem
XL 240mg every day and sent a prescription to my pharmacy. Heart rate now down to between 80 and 90 which is still too high. Looking at the leaflet
Adizem
does not claim to reduce heart rate.

12th Trip to Resus with different outcome
I left with different tablets
Adizem
XL 240mg. Haven't been able to take those yet as I woke up after a night in my own bed with very odd feeling in my chest. Put pulse ox on finger and my heart is all over the place. Not fast as is usual but all over the place.

Flecainide and heart rate
Based on your experience does Flecainide (Tambocor) raise heart rate. My cardiologist has recently put me on 90 mg of Dilzem twice a day and 50 mg of Tambocor twice a day. I was hoping this combo may help my heart rate to go down to the sixties. Instead my heart rate is now in the sventies and eighties

What is CHAD score?
2 months ago, I fainted 3 times in one day - 2 at home and the third time in the hospital lobby after being discharged from the ER. In the ER, they detected AFib and gave me cardizem intravenously. I spent the night in the hospital with a Holter monitor and no more episodes occurred. I was sent home

Ectopic Snowball Effect
Hi, I've been reading here for a couple of years but this is my first post. I found the forum when, almost 2 years ago, I suddenly had a lot of ectopic heartbeats. I was in the shower and stressed out and they just suddenly started. I was having stomach pain at the time (stress) and after a couple
