I was getting Afib every 2-3 days for about 24 hours. I had tried a number of other drugs such as Flecanide, Rhythmol, Bisoprolol without much effect. For the first 2-3 weeks on Sotalol things appeared to get worse and I nearly gave up. However after about 4 weeks, it got a lot better and I'm now down to occasional AF in the evening, which is no real problem. I had a somewhat 'spaced out' feeling initially although that has faded somewhat. My AF type is mixed. I did get 2 longer periods of AF 2 weeks ago, but it was particularly hot here at the time, and I had just resumed eating dark chocolate - regretably I've stopped it again!
