- Anyone's doctor warn them about taking Z-pak if you have a fib? I have wondered about this for awhile. FDA just came out with a warning.
- I'm suffering from a nasty cold-nasal congestion, cough, etc. What meds are ok to take that don't trigger a fib? I understand pseudoephedrine isn't good. I used to use Proventil to help with the cough. That triggered my a fib in the past. Now I'm...
- I'm due for a colonscopy next year. Last time I had one done, i know the anesthesiologist told me I went into a fib. Has anyone used some other anesthesia that didn't cause a fib?I think the usual anesthesia is fentanyl and versed.We can't seem to...
- I was trying to find something to relieve stress. As many have said, stress does bring on a fib and other abnormal beats for me.The antidepressants tend to cause palpitations and it lists a fib on their side effects, I hate to take something that...
- I posted that I was worried the "blips" might evolve into a fib. Last night I had some irregular beats that went on longer than usual. Usually they resolve after 3-4 beats. I don't know how long this lasted, but it seemed like minutes. I felt dizzy...
- I had a PVI ablation done in March, 2012. I had some atrial tachy during the first 3 months and just had another event monitor which again showed atrial tachy. I can feel my heart do "blips" , some short and some longer runs, but still only lasting...
- I had my ablation back in March and had dizziness associated with the a fib before that. Now I just had Pradaxa discontinued, Tikosyn was discontinued 4 mos ago. I have bouts of dizziness and can't explain what is going on. I usually can tell when...
- I'm referring to the TV show Parenthood, not being a parent. Since the new season is starting up, just thought I'd remind you that the older father is suffering from a fib. Wonder if they will develop it even further this season?
- How about taking amoxicillin and a fib? I dont' see the same warnings that Z-pak had. Although if you google amoxicillin causing a fib, a web site does come up.
- I have been fighting a forceful cough which keeps me up all night. When I first discovered my a fib, I was fighting the same type of relentless cough. At that time I was put on amiodarone and then the doc prescribed Z-pak. I read the literature on...
- After the 3 mos check up with the nurse practitioner who told me to stay on Tikosyn due to my atrial tachy, she emailed me and said she talked to the surgeon who said to stop the Tikosyn. No explanation. The nurse prac had told me that Tikosyn is...
- I just had my 3 mos check after my ablation on 3/23/12. The news was good and bad. The MRI showed no pulmonary vein damage which was super!! But, I have atrial tachy which the nurse practioner said was CAUSED by the ablation. The treatment for that...
- Take care and soon you will be on the other side and hopefully a fib free!! Let us know how things go please!!
- I know your ablation is coming up June 11. When I was a week out, I was kinda nervous about the whole thing. Just remember, you are waiting for your heart to finally settle down and quit doing all this a fibbing! The waiting game is the hardest....
- This is a silly question, but what does adding a friend mean/do??? I"ve added them when asked, but I'm not sure what that means...
