Anyone have experience with digoxin?

Hi @lindabuza.
If you have not reviewed this already you may want to read Mayo Clinic’s overview about the medication digoxin, typically used to treat heart failure or in your case, atrial fibrillation.
- Digoxin overview: https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/digoxin-oral-route/description/drg-20072646

I am tagging @dnanewnorth89 that has made reference to both cardio version and dioxin. Also @geomom that has also recently started digoxin.

A discussion in the Heart Rhythm Condition Support Group has good conversation about cardio version use and success that may be helpful: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/cardioversion-and-metoprolol/

What the reason your doctor gave for backing off the frequency of taking digoxin, and what dose are you taking?

He never gave a reason, he just said “ go to every other day”. The dosage is 125mcg, 1 tablet daily

Hello,
Yes, my EP must be getting frustrated with my old heart but he keeps trying. I'm an 84 year old male, which had a porcine mitral valve sewed in 15 years ago due to bacterial endocarditis. Lot's of scar tissue, the valve still works. But in the last year and half have had 2 cardio-versions and one ablation that hasn't helped. Have both A-fib and A-flutter, He recently Inserted a biventricular ICD, Two previous ones were 2 wire devices. This 3 wire unit didn't help much as yet, and after many meds trying to halt the fib or flutter or be tolerated , here's where I'm at now--on Eliquis 5m, 2x also on Digoxin 125 mg, Metoprolol 25 mg, Entresto 24 mg/ 26 mg, 2x. These being tolerated for now, and feeling ok in spite of it all.
My EF % is sitting around 36%, which keeps me moving but not running. If that keeps declining by next echo-cardiogram, then
looking at an AV node ablation running then on the device battery's. Hope this makes sense and that we all have some luck.
