My experience with both heart arrhythmia (anti) and heart rate is they make me tired and short of breath if I work/exercise more than walking about on the level.  These side effects are common for the meds I've been on: toprol, propafenone and Rythmol SR.  My doctor has allowed that I reduce my dose level on toprol (metoprolo) and to stop Rythmol SR as it has not done anything to stop AFib, my arrhythmia problem.  I don't know the drugs you mention "msanxiety" but "ireneo" is right, you should be able to find the official side effects by looking up your meds on the web.  You should have also gotten an information/advisory sheet of information with your drugs from the pharmacist.

I've never taken the medication so don't know. Did you try to google the med and look under side effects? Besides, in your message you said the doctor wanted you to stop Tiazac and start the Coreg. Have you tried that yet? One thing with heart meds, it's not a good idea to start and stop them. Plus it may take a month or two for the initial side effects to settle down. Try not to be discouraged. When I first started Diltiazem I had monster headaches for the first 2 weeks and felt like my brain was full of fuzz. Not a good time to make major decisions.
