A member asked:
Before i taken flecainide, my heart rate around 75bpm but after 3 mths,now be around 60bpm. what if i take it, my heart rate will continue to fall?

Probably not: Flecainide should be taken under close supervision. HR of 60 is NORMAL and you should not obsess about it. Quit taking HR since you have atrial fibrillation and measuring heart rate is quite inaccurate and the only thing you are successfully doing it is increasing your anxiety level!!
