Lercandipine 20mg and AFib
I was started on 10mg Lercandipine in the mornings by my Cardiologist about a year ago. I also take 15mg Bisoprol, 2.5mg Indapamide and 40 mg Olmesartan together with 60mg Edoxaban in the morning and 8mg Doxazosin at night. A week ago he changed my Lercandipine dosage to 20mg and to take it in the evening

Recovery stories after PFA?
Just scheduled a PFA (pulsed field ablation) for mid-June, and was wondering if anyone might share their recovery stories - is it an easier recovery than Cryo or RF? I had a cryo ablation in 2018, and after a couple of years of trial and error, had almost 3 years of no AF episodes on 200mg/day of Flecainide

Does Flecainide Work for Persistent Afib
Hello. In February, I had a cardioversion after being in persistent afib for 5 months. While I was in NSR, I saw my cardiologist and he took me off of metoprolol and prescribed Ditilizem and Flecainide. Several days after I saw him, I went back into persistent afib, but had not yet started taking

Constant afib
I am becoming tired of suffering from afib every ten days. My medication is Bisoporol 5mg, Warfarin and Dronedarone 500mg twice daily. I had an ablation two years ago which didn't work. I'm going for an echocardiagram and a a halter early April to ascertain if heart has changed. Has anyone any positive

Afib and Atrial tachycardia ...
Hi all, Long story short, I've had arrhythmia for years, Afib and SVT. 4 ablations later, last year they fitted me with a dual chamber pacemaker and had an AV Node ablation. I still have an ILR fitted and from the uploads of a night from my monitor, they have found I'm having Atrial Tachycardia,

Advice post ablation
Hi-I know this subject has probably been discussed before but.......... back in May last year I was put on the waiting list for an ablation having had regular bouts of Afib which were treated successfully by using Fleccanide as a PIP. I didn,t have any Afib episodes after August but had ever increasing

multaq
hi guys So the dr has taken me off propafenone after being on for a few years and doing well with episodes being around 9 months apart. Started me on multaq and now episodes every 3 weeks, actually in af now for second day. My INR is 2.3 so can I wait until 7 days before going for the dreaded cardioversion

Flecainide without Beta-Blocker
Hello everyone. I am worried about my Husband and the choices being offered to him for the treatment of his AF and I would welcome members thoughts and opinions on the matter. My husband is 75. His heart history as follows. 1. Palpitations, attributed to short salvoes of supraventricular tachycardia

Diltiazem aka Cardizem
Of all times for AF to really mess me about is on my 80th birthday holiday back to the USA A wicked episode which woke me from sound sleep at 4am was not to be curtailed by the maximum dose of Flecainide. First time. Instead, bpm zoomed to 198 and stayed up there and I had no more drugs to throw

Mixed feelings about hospital too busy to review 12 months after ablation.
I am now 12 months NSR after successful ablation and experiencing mixed feelings."Reviewed without contact .No follow up planned." If I run into problems contact them & they will arrange a follow up. I just have a few questions. 1.I need to know what I can expect from now on. 2.As it over 2.5 years
