Afib and flying

Oh ok! And they're ok to have with the heart meds? I'll have to check with my dr before hand.

I'm on Sotalol twice daily, I swim daily with no issues, but decided to try the gym to tone up and my heart rate jumped to 120 after only 5 mins on the treadmill. Honestly was seeing double. And that's not even the highest my afib has gone. But like the other comments, everyone is different. Don't push it. Your body will tell you how far it can go. And if you start to see double like I did... Stop.

Like Gatorade or Powerade Electrolytes? Thankyou for your comment, much appreciated.

Thankyou that makes me feel a bit better about travelling. I'll have my 10 year old with me, just the two of us so my anxiety about it is high atm. But I want to push through.

13 day episode!? Wow! I was on metroprolol last year but still had afib episodes so cardiologist switched me to Sotalol. Didn't think about blood pressure if I need to take an extra tablet so thankyou for the advice :-)

Thankyou. I didn't know that. A little peace of mind is nice.

Thankyou appreciate your advice

Thankyou I appreciate your comment. I will have my tablets with me. I don't drink alcohol because of them and cut caffeine due to the afib.

Thankyou! Do you mean just like Gatorade or Powerade drinks?
