Am about to start taking these tablets, one twice a day, changing from Bisoprolol which I have been taking since 9th December when atrial fibrillation was diagnosed. All the specialist advised me about Flecainide was that they could affect my eyes. Has anyone had this side effect or any other I should worry about? It doesn't help that I am a born worrier. I have also got to take warfarin for the rest of my life. Thanks in advance.
Lots of people have taken flecainide and are well. and you should take the warfarin - your doctor has explained why ( puts off the danger of stroke). W does make you feel tired tho'
Thankyou Sqad and TWR (Nothing to do with Tom Walkinshaw Racing ?) for your kind comments, which I have noted. Are you in the medical line or just know about these things?Helen (Molly is the name I use on Answerbank)
Exactly what Sqad said, the list that comes with them will be a yard long - born worriers take this seriously. See how you go and if any side effects occur discuss with Doctor.
It is a widely prescribed medication, so hopefully you will be fine.
Thankyou Peter Pedant, and everyone for your help, am too cowardly to start taking the Flecainide tonight, will start after breakfast tomorrow. So the Warfarin makes me feel tired, my bowels have changed too, and not for the better..........
