Yes, I’m in the same boat. My cardiologist changed my meds again; now on Multaq and Verapamil plus Eliquis and Brilinta. There’s talk about ablation, but I am hesitant. Just dealing with nasty front desk clerks keep me from going to his office. He comes highly recommend, but has a “Princely” air about him. Hate it all!

You are kind to describe him as "princely" -- I think you really mean "he's an arrogant A-hole."

Get a new Doctor if at all possible! It's stressful enough having to deal with this disease let alone dealing with an arrogant A Hole !!

Yes, your description is much more accurate!
Spent three hours on the phone yesterday with CVS mail order trying to undo a prescription for six months of Multaq at my cost of $964.00 dollars. Not a fun way to spend a weekend!

On issues of health, always obtain a 2nd or even 3rd opinion. This may depend on your insurance and finances. I remind people sometimes, medicine is a money-making proposition and the dispensing of drugs even though marginally helpful indirectly afford the physician income. Health care is mostly about money. If you can afford it, go to the best there is!
