I don't think ablation is a good option as everyone I know that has had ablation have had several repeats. That is fine for whoever is doing it, but it sure affects your insurance.
I am on Amiodarone, supposed to be on 200mg a day. That kills my energy and caused a lot of other irritations in my daily life. I did a lot of studying and read a paper on the efficiacy of 100mg compared to 200mg. After 18 months I cut the pills in half, 100mg a day. Feel a lot better but still wary of this drug. My primary calls it poison and my cardiologist wants me to switch to Sotalol. I might not be a doctor but I can read and my comprhension skills are good. I personally am holding off on that switch which would require that I stop Metoprolol 2 x 100mg and the Amiodarone and go on bidaily Sotalol.
It's all poison. My current regimen is 2.5mg Amlodipine, 200mg Metoprolol and 120mg Verapamil and 100mg Amiodaroneper day. I think I am starting to get blurred vision and last US shows Pancreatic issues.
