Guest guest Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 > Just thought I would share my experiences with you. Hi, Alan, Codling in this group is in the UK, so hopefully he will see your message and chime in. You might ask your doc about Tikosyn. I am not sure if it is available in the UK yet. Some people here have had good luck with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chap I'm waiting to see was on 237 days last month but has dropped to 155 days this month so I think you have to take the numbers with a pinch of salt. if I beat you to the finishing line I'll let you know how it goes -- D (Leeds) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 Good luck to you both, take a small tip form somebody who is experienced in this. If you feel really poorly call the Consultant secrretary and just say you feel really bad is there anything you can do form me. A box of Chocs works wonders when you ge the appointment.
