I recently had an ECG done after discontinuing Amiodarone, which caused first-degree AV block and sinus bradycardia. My heart rate is still in the 40s at rest. I had a history of MI in 2005 and my ejection fraction is 32%. My current medications are Enalapril, Aldactone, Atorvastatin, and Aspirin. I would like to know if there is any treatment for first-degree AV block and how long it takes for Amiodarone to completely work out of my system.

I have had diarrhea/watery stool for about 7 days. I had lunch at a restaurant last Monday afternoon, and about 15 minutes after I left, I had to rush to find a bathroom. For about 4 days, I had intermittent painful stomach cramps, but those have gone away. I still have some stomach discomfort. I have loss of appetite, am thirsty, not nauseous, and have not thrown up once. Just wondering if this is going away or do I need to get some medication?

My last blood pressure reading was 131/50. Is the bottom number too low, and should it be looked into? I've been feeling weak, but I also have chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), so I'm not sure if the low blood pressure number is contributing to that.
