Had to have a cardioversion to fix the Flutter. Stayed on Effexor then had a 2nd Atrial Flutter event within 30 days of the 1st one. Had a 2nd cardioversion and ended up having an Ablation to fix the flutter long term. Went off the Effexor after the 2nd Atrial Flutter spell. Now here we are in 2013 and doctor's want to put me back on the Effexor. Within two months, my heart went back into Atrial Flutter. Had to have another cardioversion. Right now I'm on heart meds to try and keep rhythm normal. Still on the Effexor because no doctor believes it's the cause. But a heart cath found no other causes for the Flutter. Is it just coincedence or could the Effexor be the cause? Reply From this study (3 weeks ago): Hungry all the time. Eat past full/bloated feeling and still want to eat more, gained 50 pounds in first year of treatment. Reply From this study (3 weeks ago): Kevin Peters Ph.d on Mar, 4, 2013: Sammy, I'm a white 45 male; just wanted to agree on that Klonopin remark. When I was 21 I had my second kidney transplant which was a BAD issue all together, at any rate the hospital did not include my medications taken at home after my surgery. I went thru the worst hallucinations and jerking and seizures you could ever possibly imagine. This went on for almost 3 1/2 weeks before we decided to have me taken OUT of the hospital and relocated before they ended up taking my life. Then the whole staff of paychology including the chief of psychiatry cane in my room to see what they could do, Finallu. During one of my few moments of clarity the C.O.F after blaming me if talking "drugs" prior to my transplant listened to my word of telling him the meds I was on before being admitted. After asking when was the last time I had received my Klonopin and me not knowing, he then reviewed the charts, and didn't see me receiving this med once. He stormed out of the room of about 9 docs and came back in with two Klonopin; for the first time in almost 4 weeks and after three surgeries the first 72 hours I was hospitalized, I was sleeping like a baby, for about 49 hours with NO MORE hallucinations, or seizures or jerking! I finally got out of there without a kidney since that kidney was supposed to go to another man named the same as I in a different city! I do take Xanax and probably always will. The half life on Klonopin is much different hence one if its dangers, Nevwr Ever stop this drug cold! I've been on dialysis 25 1/2 years now and suffered from intense skin cancers, but have fought and done all I can do to live a normal as possible life, working full time except when I'm in yet another surgery, over 32 general anesthetic procedures since 1987. I was the youngest boy-man to ever be on the USA soccer team ready to play in the Korea 1988 Olympics. What a change in life.....
All the Best,
K. Peters Reply chris on Jun, 4, 2011: i have been taking clonzepam and trazedone and my speech is a very hoarse voice, I am wondering if if my speech problem is from these drugs's side effects. Reply TwoDimes on Apr, 15, 2012: Upon occasion, I, too, have become hoarse and from the use of Klonopin. I was VERY hoarse when I tried to cold turkey off of 4mgs of Klonopin. I am now down to 1.5mgs per day and, still, (as I said, upon occasion, I become hoarse. I am sure that the use of Klonopin is the causative factor. - TwoDimes - Reply SammySushi on Jul, 10, 2012: Omigosh, never cold turkey clonopin, esp that high of a dose. My dad had a major seizure and hallucinations doing so. Reply Christophe on Nov, 13, 2012: Hello,
I suffer from Hypothyroidism, High Cholesterol & Cancer survivor because of Zyprexa use and previously being prescribed Carbamezapine causing Thyroid damage. My best advice to you if you don't want Hypothyroidism is have regular blood tests, Thyroid damage can be undetected for up to 5 years with no symptoms found on regular blood tests prematurally. Make sure you buy iodised salt to use on food when eating this will help reduce your risk of getting Hypothyroidism. two signs of Hypothyriodism which the Carbamezapine & Zyprexa medication boxes labels wont tell you is if your face becomes puffed up, red or sun sensitive while taking these medications this is a sign of Hypothyroidism. It wont be found on your blood test but later on it could appear out of the blue. The other sign to look for is baldness or hair loss on your head, this is another symptom. I hope these comments will help you. You have to weight up the benefits and negatives taking medications if you decide to take these medicines or not. It depends on how you cope with the drug side effects.

Reply From this study (1 month ago): My arrhythmia was found out in 2009. I have been taking Coumadin for the Factor V Leiden condition for more than ten years. I was treated with cardioversion, which was effective for a brief time, but the condition returned. I would like to know if there is any correlation with the Factor V Leiden and the arrhythmia. Reply From this study (1 month ago): would like to know how morphine helps bipolar Reply shannon on Apr, 13, 2013: Not sure exact mech. of action, however, could be to raise "Feel Good" endorphines and possibly keep you more at a "near but not fully" manic point, so to speak. I know a few with depression treated with morphine for that reason...it increases the available dopamine between the nerve cells called the synapsis, in turn, giving a feeling of "well being". This effct is opposite in some people...such as scizophrenics...it seems to make them more apt
to do stranger stuff and hallucinate. Im just a paramedic that researches stuff like this and no physician by a long shot...just picked it up after researching a patient I thought was lying to me about a depression treatment plan with narcotic medication....I had to find it out for myself and the above explanation is the guts of the study....hope it helps....I research alot of "cases" I transport to the hospital with good stories...
