A-Fib and MAC

Posted by dbug7857 @dbug7857, Feb 15, 2021

I have had bronchiectasis for several years and recently diagnosed with NTM/MAC disease. I was also just diagnosed with A-Fib. Both doctors said there are very few medications that can be used to treat both conditions at the same time and I am wondering if anyone else is in this situation and what medications they are taking?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the MAC & Bronchiectasis Support Group.

I have bronchiectasis, A-Fib, and chronic rhinitis. The beta blocker I am on is controlling the heart rate. I have tried 2 other ones this past year and and severe allergic reaction when it and a nasal spray for chronic rhinitis were started. I am not sure which one caused the severe rash all over my body!!! I am also having a very difficult time with some nebulized medications due to the interaction with Beta Blocker. I do not have an answer. I am still trying and working with cardiologist and pulmonologist to try to tweek for the least side effects possible.

I'm on beta blocker too, have been for several years before my cancer diagnosis. It controls ventricular bigeminy for me. This is good information to know! Thank you for sharing. Karen
