Is anyone on anti-arrythmia's??
just wondered if you still experience irregular beats while taking them?

Hi there, can you tell me what you mean by anti-arrythmias? Ive been taking beta blockers for a couple of years and they slow down the heart rate, but I still get the odd skipped beat or flutter though not nearly as bad as before...thankfully :)

anti arrythmias are different, I'm on beta blockers also and they have helped.
I'm on anti arrythmias which are supposed to keep a regular heart rate and rythmn but my heart has been beating very odd last few days, it's really out of rythmn

Do you think, depending on how long you've been taking them, that you may need the dose adjusting now? I'm not sure how it works with anti-arrythmias sorry.
