breathlessness, exercise and sotalol
I moved from 2.5 mg bisoprolol having agreed to go on the waiting list, 6-9 months for an ablation, and the other option,
amiodarone
, I didn't like the sound of the side effects at all.

Heartrate after a Cardioversion
My resting heartrate is 52bpm after Cardioversion has returned me to rhythm.I am still on
Amiodarone
and having difficulty with throbbing headache while resting and short of breath/tightness in chest when walking. I usually walk at 3mph but can only walk at 2mph since heartrate has dropped.

Dronaderone
I wonder whether the Dronaderone is actually making things worse, My cardiologist is now advising
Amiodarone
to see if that controls things any better. Does anyone have any experience wth this?

Thanks for your earlier support for my 1st ablation. But now more questions.
Even prior to my ablation I was in NSR on 300mgs a day of
Amiodarone
with maybe a couple of short episodes a month now I feel like I'm worse off then before. I'm still on
Amiodarone
200mgs Metoprolol and Eliquis but this episode is worse than any I've had in the last 2 years.

Norwich, Bart's or Leicester
Of the drugs I can take only
amiodarone
is left. My EP has offered me a fourth ablation but I'm wary of trying the same thing again so I am going to ask for a second opinion. So my question is Bart's or Norwich or Leicester? Any feedback on any of these and do any of them do the.minimaze?

Should I give up taking Amiodarone
I took 100mg
Amiodarone
daily until November when I slipped into AFib again. I did a 3 per day 200mg
amiodarone
for one week, 2 per day and then 1 per day and this hasn't sorted it.

Just popping in to say Hi!
Now on day 6 of recovery and pleased to see a lot of posts about returning to near normality, the only real concern is the addition of
Amiodarone
and it's side effects.

Lamotrigine
I had been experiencing light headedness and vision problems which were originally thought to be a long-term side effect of
Amiodarone
, a heart med. (I have managed to survive two out of hospital cardiac arrests and now regularly buy a lottery ticket!)

Thyroid dosage for elderly Mom
note thru her my chart regarding her thyroid dosage.. just a little back story.. had iodine ablation a few years ago, (was hyper).. that led to hypo, and was put on synthroid, i think it started at 50, and went as high as 100 as a dosage... at that time she was also on an anti arrhythmia drug called
amiodarone

Stay on current meds or switch to Sotalol?
I was offered
Amiodarone
but a previous doctor and subsequent reading has put me off this because of the affect it can have on other parts of the body. I have also been offered Dronedarone but the recommendation is to try is Sotalol.

Tikosyn (Dofetilide)?
Apparently it is less toxic in the long run than
Amiodarone
, but it requires three-days in the hospital at the outset to monitor no adverse reactions (which can include cardiac arrest).

Procedure for Morbidly Obese with AFIB
I’m on
amiodarone
now and still having breakthrough attacks up to twice a week. They told me I need an ablation but can’t get one because of my weight.

Fast AF/slow AF …symptoms
Fingers crossed this is going to work otherwise ablation is next on the list as I’m not a candidate for beta blockers & he’s not a fan of
amiodarone
. Have a good weekend everyone, I’m very nervous about taking my first few flecanide tablets but he’s assured me this will work well .

Dronedarone - or ablation of the ligament of Marshall
And as I can’t stay on
amiodarone
and can’t take Flecanide I have to do something. Let’s see.
