[|Human|] hello i am a 43 year old woman who was diagnosed with NSIP, as a side effect of prednisone my pottasium depletes and i have to take 4x sando k  daily , once my pottasium level was 2.1 which we think triggered off an AF episode , and i ended up in hospital , i am on 5mg bisoprolol , my question is that i have plucked up the courage to go on holiday and i am going to fly for 5 hours, how safe is it ? also i have regular palpatations and sometimes they last for half an hour continuously ... thank you
[|AI|]  Hello understand your question and will try to help you.SIP (non-specific interstitial pneumonia) is a chronic lung diseases that as treatment has corticosteroids as you explain. If you do not have need for excessive oxygen in your treatment I mean you feel good no dyspnea in rest do not worry about the flight. What about the AF. I would recommend you for safe reasons to do an EKG and to consult a cardiologist before the flight. May be in your condition the heart specialist might add something else in your treatment or increase the doses of bisoprolol. So good flightThank you Chat Doctor.
