Re: Taken off Tambacor


Dear Cheow,
NO,I did not have anemia while on Tambocor, but I do take a
blood thinner and will continue to do so as I had a very small stroke
5 years ago.
I too get "extra" beats but the Dr. told me not to worry about
them. I do not understand what you mean by the blowing bubbles
feelings in your hands and legs. Do you mean that you get a feeling
like they are asleep or tingling or burning??. Atrial fib does give
what some people describe as pop corn popping in their chest. It is
hard to describe. How long have you been off Tambocor now?
