A-Fib and Cordarone

Posted By Stan on May 07, 1998 at 20:20:27:







My father has been in A-Fib for almost a year now.  Doctors have tried atenolol etc.with no luck.  He is on Cordarone now and feels horrible! He is very weak, fatigued, and cant sleep. What is this drug really??  I hear  that it is good.  I certainly hope so.  Now his hands are shaking somewhat. How does this drug affect so many functions?  Apparently doctors are going to 'shock' the heart soon.  I am concerned that the condition seems to be winning.  What else can be done/  thank so much.
