Taking Flecainide, Cardizem And Xaralto For A-Fib And Sinus Tachycardia. What Are The Side Effects?

Yes I am on flecainide, Cardizem and xaralto... I had rapid afib and inappropriate sinus tachycardia. The beta blockers I was on originally, made me sick, I had difficulty breathing.... I am better now with this new combination but still get a little short of breath at times. I have a lot of gas..constant burping. It's just uncomfortable. I was worried about contraindications. Also I'm getting a cold and wanted to know if I could take zicam cold remedy

Sorry I can't afford to pay you. I already have a ton of medical bills

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
For sinus tachycardia, you was having difficulties, and side effects, so now changed the medicines.
If your doctor say that the tachycardia is under control you need not worry. You will be fine soon.
The difficulty in breathing may also be due to the gastric hyper acidity probably due to the medicines, or irritant foods.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
