I recently started taking this "old drug" for rhythm control, but then again I'm an "old guy" at 75 :-) Flecainide worked wonders for me during a long period but became less and less effective in recent months. I am a vagal afibber, with episodes coming on only during my sleeping hours. I do plan to get tested for sleep apnea in the near future as that may be a factor. I would appreciate any feedback members have on this new "old drug" I'm taking. I have yet to convert to NSR after three days on disopyramide and am waiting patiently.
Thanks, Tom
Thanks, George, for the references and future reading for me. By the way, I just converted to normal sinus rhythm after being on disopyramide for five days! Now, let's see if it keeps me there! Tom
