Amiodarone
I went to see my ep on Monday and he prescribed these tablets and told me he is giving me 12 mth to lose a lot of weight so I can have ablation, but as
amiodarone
affects thyroid I wondered if any one has any experience of it interfering with weight loss, any help would be welcome. Thank you

AV Node ablation, I've read that much I am lost on the benefit
About a couple of weeks later it had spread to both lungs and eventually it was diagnosed as
amiodarone
lung toxicity. Since I came off the
amiodarone
, the AF came back, my pacemaker gives the exact time and number of occurrences and for the last year I have been permanent AF.

How to cope with depression due to awaiting FOURTH ablation?
I was rushed to A&E with SVT and fast AF last week, and am now on
amiodarone
. I feel like death and can't do anything right. How do I cope?

I have recently been prescribed Amiodarone 600 mg for a week, 400mg for another week then 200mg daily by my cardiologist.
He explained about the side effects, thyroid, liver & lungs which he passed of saying but those things can be addressed if they happen. Now i read about other side effects & dont like the sound of this drug, just how safe is it...think id rather have pulpitations than other problems.

Hi, is anyone else taking dronedarone for AF? It has far fewer side effects than amiodarone and has done the trick for me,
I still get a few ectopic beats here and there even though I had an ablation, but the EP said I have to stay on the drugs since the ablation hadn't done the trick and since my AF is controlled by the dronedarone he won't do another ablation.

4th December 2013 Ablation update
Then, just over 2 weeks ago, I was prescribed
amiodarone
. Week 1 I was to take 3 x 200mg daily along with the Tildiem I was already taking. Week 2 stop the Tildiem and reduce
amiodarone
to 2 x 200g daily. Week 3 reduce
amiodarone
to 1 x 200mg daily until further notice.

Advice on what to ask.
I first noticed I had AF NOV 2012 and the cardiologist I was seeing at the time placed me on Warfarin and
Amiodarone
. I have been fine since and remain very active, however the
Amiodarone
is causing me concerns. The first cardio I saw didn't see an issue with me taking the drug.
