Daily PACs about 2 and a half months post ablation
Anyone ever taken a low dose
Flecainide
daily to help? It’s miserable and I’m thinking that might help 2nd question- is it possible for things to settle down even after the 3 months. I know that time frame is the widely accepted time frame to judge a successful procedure.

New ectopics on reducing beta blockers after 2nd Ablation in Feb
Only seemed to start on me, when down to 2.5mg bisoprolol plus 100mg bd
Flecainide
. Wanting to come off both, when possible. Appreciate people's thoughts ?

The Yo-yo of the blanking period
TThe EP had taken me off
Flecainide
and Bisoprolol immediately after the ablation. Following which I had some AFib. The EP put me back on the meds ( hope you are following!). All OK for a week but very slow rhythm with pauses and ectopics. But today the heart surpassed itself.

Extracts from 2020 ESC guidelines on stroke, flecainide & lifestyle
I just scanned this meaty document and took 25 extracts on principally 3 areas of interest as above. Was hoping to attach the folder here but don't think that can be done; maybe it can be done by individual private message if anyone interested contacts me. The bottom line is it is a useful 'summary

Heart Rate Spikes after Ablation
My doctor took me off of
Flecainide
2 x 50mg a day and Dilt XR 120mg when I told him about the spikes. Any advice you can give me is welcomed.

What magnesium to use?
where do you get it from and what are your bank details 🤪🤣 I’m off for a cardiac mri on Thursday and I’m taking 2.5 milligrams of bisoprolol twice a day to help with my pvcs, I’ve had no Af whatsoever since my ablation last June, I’ve had some fast heart rate mixed in with pvcs but since I’ve stopped

Told to stop

Third episode of persistent AF in 6 months
I take Edoxaban and have tried to take
Flecainide
but it makes me dizzy and very sick. I tried the "pill in pocket " yesterday but it did not work. I think it is being triggered by hot flushes. I had breast cancer 6 months ago and had to have a mastectomy and come off HRT.

Flecainide
I’ve been prescribed
Flecainide
low dose 50mg one at night. Since taking it I feel very tired and lethargic and a bit irritable! Is anyone else on this medication? I’m hoping once my body gets used to it the side effects will wear off!

I was doing very well with
Flecainide
to control my ectopics. About three weeks ago they started to get worse, until now the
Flecainide
( 100 mgs twice a day ) doesn’t seem to help at all.

What's the point of taking Flecainide if it gives you flutter?
Has anyone else decided to live with Afib on no drugs (other than anticoagulants) rather than have flutter on
Flecainide
?

Flecainide
I have recently started on
Flecainide
, only low dose, 50mg once a day at night. Anyone had side effects from this drug, tiredness, a bit weak, etc. I feel so tired and lethargic since taking it and a bit irritable! I'm hoping once my body gets used to it, these effects will wear off.

Vagal/Sympathetic Cascade a homegrown theory
In 2020 it happened very frequently ( often 4 days out of seven) and after runs of tachy and lots of ectopics, my
flecainide
was increasea and everything improved) I can function (mostly) when I get this, but need to rest on bed to feel more comfortable ( it fluctuates, usually evenings better) Lasts

Atrial fibrillation diagnosis and medication side effects
I’m now taking
Flecainide
& Apixaban to manage the condition Whilst I wait to have an Ablation procedure. I’m feeling really fatigued and head feels ‘foggy’. Is this normal with AF?

Bisoprolol zombie
After initial amazing success with
Flecainide
controlling my Afib, which gave me my energy back for work, social and family life, I'm now in
Flecainide
induced flutter which is still better than Afib.

Does Afib Months After Ablation Mean It Was Unsuccessful?
I had stopped the
flecainide
, which I'd been on for over two years, on June 13, a week before that appointment. Question: Could this episode mean that the ablation wasn't successful or is this, on average, a common part of the process? Thank you.
