Nervous to start flecainide acetate For PACs, PVCs, and tachycardia
Hi I am a 32 y/o female who has been taking metoprolol 25mg extended release for a few years now for some PACs, PVCs and tachycardia (tachycardia was never above 130) The metoprolol is making my blood pressure very low and my new cardiologist switched me to flecainide acetate but I’m nervous to start

I got yelled at😢
Im 66 yr old, well seasoned old nurse who thought I could handle just about any thing. I always considered myself a calm person. Well today I got yelled at and hung up on by a mom of a teenager we know. Details arent important other than it was an over reaction, uncalled for and I was innocent( I know

Information re: beta blockers
Hello everybody. I'm looking for some advice today. I have paroxysmal atrial fib, and am taking 1/4 tab of 25 mg Metoprolol 2x/day (6.25 mg). If I increase the dosage, I get severe brain fog, so much that I can't even operate the TV remote. My heart rate and B/P are both fairly low, heart rate usually

CBD for anxiety and insomnia
Has anyone had experience with CBD for relieving anxiety and insomnia? I’m on Pradaxa, metoprolol and had ablation for AFib and SVT 2 yrs ago. Doing ok mostly but extremely lethargic because I don’t get enough sleep even with my CPAP. I’m 74 and was otherwise pretty healthy. I appreciate any insight

Ablation - Second Procedure
Greetings All, I had my second Ablation on Tuesday, April 30 in NYC. Home now and feeling tired, sore and a little beaten up. Doctor thinks it all went well and rest and time will tell. I was much stronger and more prepared mentally and physically this time. Please if anyone is hesitating about the procedure

Blood pressure spike during AF while sleeping.
Hello. I'm 64 and was diagnosed with AF last year although I believe I have had it for awhile prior to that. I'm on 25mg of Metoprolol (1/2 pill twice a day). No blood thinner, just a baby asprin a day. Sometimes I wake up from a sound sleep and know I'm not 'right'. My blood pressure cuff doesn't always

Advice and questions -now in permanent Atrial Flutter?
After my third ablation with two cardio versions that resulted in nsr two or three weeks after cv, my EP will not convert me. since I was on the strongest drug Amiodarone there is no medication I can take- Flecanide gave me prolonged qt wave. My problem is flutter- and I am so uncomfortable at 100bpm

It is a BIG day for me...
Hey afib family! My doctor has given me the green light to stop metoprolol! I stopped flecainide 3 or 4 weeks ago and asked if he would consider taking me off the metoprolol and blood thinners and he agreed to the metoprolol but recommended I stay on the blood thinners for now. For those that have stopped

What sleep aids are safe with SVT, PoTs and Metoprolol
Hi everyone, I was wondering if any of you know what sleep aids I could use while taking metoprolol for SVT and PoTS. I used to take Zzzquil but there is alcohol in that. Looking for something natural that won’t exacerbate my sensitive heart. Thank you.

Metoprolol Shortage.........
My in house pharmacy at myGP’s cannot get any Metoprolol 50mg or 100mg due to shortage from the manufacturer. So without advising me gave me 3.75mg Bisoprolol once daily....... instead of my metoprolol 50 mg twice daily. Telling me it would be the same. However, upon looking at the SPC site memo on suitable

Has anyone transitioned from metoprolol to flecainide? I am suppose to taper off metoprolol while starting 50 mg of flecainide.
I’m wondering what I should expect and how fast does flecainide work?

Metoprolol
So I was given metoprolol due to having a svt episode (180 heart rate and extremely high blood pressure). I take the extended release 25 mg and I been feeling dizzy and I also get palpitations. I don’t know if I should switch medicine or reduce the amount I have. Does anyone experience these symptoms

Slippery Slope- 3rd Ablation update
I feel like I am sliding down a slippery slope- having had three ablations in 18 months I have not been able to walk like I used to - yeah I teach exercise classes but it’s getting harder - I am in the blanking period or it takes three to six months to feel like normal and I back to an ablation Update

Did anyone else have issues getting their doctor to approve ablation?
I’ve been on metoprolol for 4 months now and my SVTs are definitely not daily like they used to be. But I still do have episodes and they still affect my quality of life. Last time I saw my EP he said to keep on with the metoprolol since it is helping. I’d much rather not have SVT and not be on beta
