Amiodarona- I’ve been on it a week and feel very shaky, almost like tremors inside. Just wondering if I should continue with it ?
I am on holiday in Spain had a bad AFib attack with RVR ended up in intensive care. Long story short they put me on Amiodarona and I’m feeling very fatigued still (8 days after discharge) and very shaky. Thinking about coming off the drug since I really don’t feel good on it - thought at first it was

bradycardia interrupting sleep
I’m waking up during the night with low heart rate 42-48 bpm and a feeling that my heart is labouring. This is usually twice in the night and I often can’t get back to sleep after 4.00am. I think sleeping on my back doesn’t help ( I try not to) and my other half tells me I snore. Tried all the sleep

Eligard for me= poison
When getting Eligard shots after prostatectomy and radiation it was holding PSA level down. It also turned my thoughts angry and disgruntled. Doctor Larock from Mattapoisett is treating me with Flutamide and Bicalutimide 1 pill day each. Thanks Jesus I can write this and feel pretty good for 75. Eligard

Flecanide or Propafenone when on ALCALABRUTINIB
Last year, I changed Ibrutinib for Alcalabrutinib because of elevated blood pressure and heart rate. For 6 months with [u]
Acalabrutinib + Bisoprolol5mg +Apixaban25mg.
[/u] I was OK. Then I had to go to ER twice in 2 months for dangerously elevated blood pressure and fast heart rate. I received

Flecainide
I had a recent AFIB episode on Sunday. This was the first time I would take Flecainide PIP, and the EP wanted me to take it at the ER. He prescribed me 50 mg. I am on 180 mg of Extended Release Diltiazem. The attending ER doctor did not think 50 mg would make a difference (he said it should be 200

Ablation for all types of AF?
I was reading a recent post - To 'ablate or not to ablate' by Tamgirl. Most responses were yes to ablation. I ask this question of everybody on each side of the fence. Do you know what type of AF you have? Your type of AF may have had a bearing on your decision to ablate or hold of on ablation. Vagal

Convergent ablation procedure
hello all, I have had persistent AF for about a year after a few years of PAF (initially diagnosed as panic attacks). I was on BISOPROLOL 3.25 and Apixaban 2x day. I had a successful CV in February this year and have reduced my BISO to .625. I do not tolerate the drugs well including the anticoagulant

To travel or not…
I am very thankful to have found this group as it has provided considerable amounts of information that otherwise can be a challenge to find even with the internet at our fingertips. I am a 55 year old man who was officially diagnosed with AFib in December 2021 after spending the night in the hospital

AF triggers
I wrote this as a reply to another post but decided that it would just be hijacking the original post, so started a new one. I definitely have triggers for AF. Anything that my body doesn’t like will trigger AF. I have a very difficult diet. I am intolerant to gluten, dairy and soya. If I have any

AFib/Atrial Flutter Burden
Hello All, I just received my results from a 7 day Zio Monitor test. It says my AFib/Atrial Flutter burden is 18%, which is up from 3% last year. This seems significant to me and a little panic producing. My average heart rate while in these episodes is in the 80s. Even when not on a beta blocker my

premature ventricular contraction
hello all, spent a night at A&E to have a 12 year old doctor tell me these are nothing to worry about although it went on for several minutes 3 separate times yesterday and knocked me off my feet 🤷🏻♀️ Apparently unless I actually black out twice I can’t be referred on to anyone and when I why this

I can't sleep feel like my heart is going to stop
It's one of those nights again. I feel pressure in my chest. I thought I was going to be able to sleep today but I guess not. Its frustrating because I was already falling asleep but I was awaken by a sudden jerk. Now every time I am falling asleep I get woken up by the sudden jerk that makes me feel

Fallen off my little pink cloud
we’ll, after a year post my last ablation, having had very little in the way of AF, it is back with avengance unfortunately. Started Thursday with increased PVCs and SVEs which developed into AF and then tachycardia/flutter at 140 bpm. I rang arrhythmia nurse who said to increase my sotalol and monitor

Atrial fibrillation post ablation
Hi everyone! I have read the info sheet and noted that palpitations are normal for some time after an ablation. I had my second ablation 5 weeks ago for afib and flutter. Everything was quite quiet for 4 weeks and then bam a few minutes of afib. Now I have had a minute or so of afib everyday. My EPs

Metoprolol
I had an ablation a few weeks ago, I'm doing ok, except for the fatigue, shortness of breath and cough. I am in sinus. I believe the above issues are related to Metoprolol I take 25mg x 2 daily, Flecainaide 50mg 2 daily and 5mg Eliquis 2 daily. I have my follow up appt next week with my EP. I'm really
