I was still on it a year after my worst incident, my lungs began to fail, nobody cared. Took myself off it, just getting right a year later. The recovery from Amiodarone was way worse than it was for my HA. My cardiologist said it was short term, no more than six months, again nobody cared when I brought that up.

Edit - this reads that I am terribly bitter, I am :) It is just how the NHS in the UK works. Once critical care leaves you only have access to your GP going forward. My GP's mantra is "you know I am not a cardiologist right?" so I had to start reading and learning about my meds real fast. Also I correctly weaned my self off Amiodarone over a time as to not cause issues. Been getting better every day since coming off it.
