I am a bit late in addressing your question about Amiodarone. I took it early in my diagnosis of A-Fib before my first ablation (which gave me almost 9 years with no A-Fib; my second ablation has lasted 4 years and still going; hope this one lasts even longer). My doctor stopped the Amiodarone after less than a month because it caused my hair to fall out. Fortunately I had lots of hair but I have less now. I know it can cause hair loss as a side effect.

He wants to keep me on it for 3 months, but I have an appointment with the EP who did the ablation and will get a second opinion. Have walked 1/2 and 3/4 miles since my appointment and am feeling decent.
