Hi @damari
You will see I moved your comment to a discussion where members are talking about Afib.
There are people like @elwood, @lucky1038, @funcountess, and @sue225 that you might connect with to talk about different medications.
I was on Multaq and had no side effects. That said, it was not terribly effective. I had 4 breakthrough episodes (between 7-10 days each) while on it. I have now been switched to Sotalol, which has been very effective at keeping me out of afib. I have had no side effects of Sotalol. They put you in the hospital for a couple of days to monitor your rhythm, as it can cause an issue. Once theymonitored for a couple of days and everything was fine, I had no issues with the medicine. I’ve been on it since February, 2021.

I had electro cardio version twice but my Afib came back within a day. It did nit work.
I'm sorry it did not work for you. Talk with your cardiologist or EP……..there ARE other options available to you. I wish you the best.
