Exercising on Amiodarone (and in Afib)
Hi - as the last throw of the dice I am taking
Amiodarone
(Arycor) until I get a cardioversion in January (will be my 7th on top of two ablations).

Low pulse rate when lying and sitting down.
I was put on
amiodarone
and beta blockers after the op as I went into AF this is common I understand after valve surgery. My question is would this be a case that my medication needs adjusting or are we looking at the fact I may need a pacemaker after the op?

Hair Loss Caused by Amiodarone and/or Apixaban
My hair has been falling out a lot more than normal since I have been on
Amiodarone
and Apixaban. I just wander if anyone else has or had similar problem who are taking this medication. Thanks. By the way, I am a woman.

My Butt Is Naked In The Wind
So my butt is in the wind waiting for
Amiodarone
to start blocking (which feels forever) I don't plan on being on this for long I assure you. No more jabs in the stomach for avoiding clots either and more and daily bouts if in and out AF.

AFIB IS STRESSING ME OUT!!!
I was then put on
amiodarone
, and eliquis, and lisonipril, which doesn't seem to work that well, I go into afib every two to three days but it always converts on it's own, Thank GOD. Lately though my blood pressure on occassion drops to 77/55 for a short time then goes back up to 111-120/70-80.

Diagnosed with AFIB 3 months ago & stressed out
I am now on
Amiodarone
(200mg once daily) and Eliquis (5mg twice daily). I still feel the heart skipping a few times every few days. I am stressed now about this. I am 62 and concerned that this will become progressively worse.

Meds and ablation
Amiodarone
led to underactive thyroid (unbelievable fatigue, worse than AF) and now on dronedarone. My question....can anyone else relate with this and the associated frustrations? Feels like a new problem each week and having major impact on work and general health.

Those people who have had a few cardio versions were you given amiodarone for any of them.
I don’t know if
amiodarone
is used for a first cardio version or not. Or if it’s used at all before or after one to help you stay in nsr. Or if it works like that.

Amiodarone before ablation
Hello Everyone Have any of you had experience of taking
Amiodarone
to try to get out of AF? I’ve had 2 Cardioversions which worked short term (the last one for a week!). This medication is to try to get normal rhythm back so that a cryo ablation has a greater success rate.

Not directly hypothyroidism related
I also had a run-in with him about another drug,
Amiodarone
, which made me feel terrible and caused a 20lb weight gain in 2 months. It 's a known thyroid disruptor.

Amiodarone and deep breathing
Has anyone experienced long term effects of Afib treatment with
Amiodarone
? I was hon it for six months and have heard horrible stories, but my PA keeps telling me it is doing its job. Another question: Comments please on deep breathing exercises?

High background Troponin levels
My dose of
Amiodarone
was removed to see if my Thyroid becomes normal again but that will probably take a few months, I fear that the arrhythmia has already returned though and there are no other drugs available apparently,
Amiodarone
is effectively the last resort.

Amiodarone
So I switched from my "plumber" to an "electrician" who took me from F and S and put me on
Amiodarone
(40 mg twice a day), but now I'm on AF a 90% of the time and sometimes fell very unwell however I'm a bit more active...doing some slow walking.

Considering Amiodarone
My EP is considering placing me on
amiodarone
since nothing else has worked with my chronic afib (5 Months). What has your experience with this drug been?

Ablation for a 78 yom
The controlling med,
Amiodarone
was prescribed for six months. With the AF I had premature ventricular contractions which were very painful. Once I stopped the
Amiodarone
the pain ceased and my pulse rate , O2, and blood pressure were all normal.
