I have been on Flecainide for about the same amount of time, starting at 100mg 2x day and then to 50mg 2x day about 18 mos ago. I have never had an issue with this medication, and it’s probably my fifth anti arrhythmia drug over the years of my afib, SVTs, etc. I know of course different medications can affect ppl in different ways but I know two other people on it with no side effects as well.
Maybe something else is causing your symptoms..?

I was on Flecainide for three months when suddenly it caused me to go into ventricular fibrillation. I was in intensive care for three days, fortunate to have survived. Neuropathy developed two weeks after this. Be very cautious when on this drug.
