Hey everyone.
I am to take Diflucan and was reading the precautions on it, which were heart irregularities, palps, or those who have had a history of long QT syndrome, etc.
I am just wondering how many of you have had heart symptoms and still took Diflucan and did fine with it?
My LLMD knows of my heart palps and issues and prescribed the Diflucan anyway. Plus, I've taken it before and was fine on it, but I'm just wondering how others have done on it with heart issues as well.
Thanks so much!

I'm on it now and doing OK. (and I have heart issues) I don't have QT so maybe that is the key. I hope so because I NEED to take this stuff right now!

Thanks, Lymetoo! I shouldn't be worried about this type of stuff, but I have anxiety about starting new meds, especially if I read the back panel and accidently read all the side effects or precautions. LOL. I should just never read the back!!!!
