Hi,

Very surprising, still have people taking Quinidine.
I was prescribed Kinidin Durules and dixozin when I
was teenage age. It was for PAT (wpw). After that I
developed ITP (low platelet). It took few years to
clear it out.

Dr told me I couldn't has my baby because my platelets
hadn't reached to the mininum yet. "Go to sleep and
try that next morning" Gosh! I had contraction and
breeding, I was in final stage of labor and the baby
was overdue. Still asked me to wait??? Now I'm in
A-Fib but they didn't ask me to take blood thinner.

No attack for 24 years? I don't believe it. How long
you were in Quinidine and Dixozin? Have you checked
your blood? It is very easy to get poisoning.
I wish you all the best!

Cheow.

Hello,
Let me tell you about my atrial-fib.
I had open heart surgery when I was 19 and my
atrial-fib started when I was about 29, when it
started my heart beat would go up to 250 -300 in a
matter of seconds and the only way my doctor could
bring my heart beat back to normal is by putting me to
sleep and shocking my heart back to normal.
I'm now taking Quinidine and Dixon and my last attack
was in 1982.
I also have congestive heart failure.
I.m now 58 and I'm in the best shape of my life, I
work out 4-5 day's a week, watch what I eat I quit
smoking 6 years ago.
and I don't get up every morning and worry about my
heart.
I live from day to day and feel fantastic.
