Sotalol

I had a ICD implanted 6 years ago. Always done well on my sotalol. About Feb mine ICD paced me 2x and my doctors increased me from 80 mg 2x a day to 120 mg 2x a day. Still having some fluttering so they have increased me to 160 2x a day. I am doing fine I just do not like to still feel the palpitation. I am sure I am causing a loot of this added stress to myself. They have put me on Paxil for anxiety Anyone else have this issue.

I have had my ICD since 2012. My ICD shocked me in Sept &Dec of 2015 and March of 2016. They put me on 40mg of Sotalol twice a day. Then on May 2 another discharge. They upped my Sotalol to 80mg twice a day. I feel palpitations sometimes but its part of my life now and I live with it.
