THANKS FOR YOUR SUGGESTIONS. THE SOUND EFFECTS CONTINUE AS DOES THE REST OF THE MESS, BUT I DO SEEM TO FINALLY BE ADJUSTING TO THE ATENOLOL.
WHETHER IT IS DOING ANYTHING POSITIVE, IS HARD TO SAY, THE NOISES IN MY EARS SEEM TO INDICATE MY HEART RATE IS PRETTY SLOW AS I SIT HERE THIS A.M.
HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A DECENT DAY.
pain can raise blood pressure. Maybe increased pain has resulted in increased BP which you can hear in your ears.
You might want to get a stethoscope and BP cuff, which should be less than $20. plus, with your affinity for sounds, the stethoscope might come in handy.
Good luck.
Ouch, it was hard to just read about your pain.
Seems you have been given medical attention, but it hasn't helped. Maybe acupuncture or some other exotic may be worth looking into.
The only heart problem I have is permanent AFib, and I just started today taking extra/supplemental magnesium after reading of some good results by other posts on this community.
I am still of a mind that medical doctors are the best hope, but when it doesn't work we can carefully try other things and try to be positive, somehow be positive and hopeful if not optimistic... the mind is a strong tool and weapon in dealing with the body...especially the heart. Not sure about the muscle pain,
God bless,
JERRY WRITES:The best advice I can offer is: any change in your heart is something worth checking on with a doctor.
That said, you didn't mention any important number/facts:
1) rest HR
ANYWHERE FROM 33 TO 80, MOSTLY AROUND 60, BUT OFTEN ENOUGH MUCH LOWER TO BE ALARMING. HOWEVER, CARDIOLOGIST SAID THE LOWEST RATE WAS PROBABLY TWO BEATS COMING SO CLOSE TOGETHER THAT NEITHER I NOR THE BLOOD PRESSURE MACHINE COULD DIFFERENTIATE THEM.
2) blood pressure
ALL OVER THE PLACE:FROM 101/52 TO 180 /120. HOWEVER AVERAGE SEEMS TO BE 130/82
3) rhythm, regular or irregular
VERY IRREGULAR, MOSTLY PVCS THEY SAY, ABOUT 8,000 A DAY
4) light headed... dizzy
OFTEN
5) muscle pain
OH YES, FIBROMYALGIA AND SPINAL STENOSIS, TENDONITIS, AND WHAT EVER ELSE
6) other things that come to your mind
I AM NOT VERY FUNCTIONAL, I HAD BEEN HOPING THAT THE CARDIO WORKUP MIGHT LEAD TO A DX THAT WAS TREATABLE, AND THAT MY BODY MIGHT BECOME MORE WILLING TO DO THE THINGS MY SPIRIT WANTS.
THE NEW BETA BLOCKER I AM ON SEEMS TO MAKE THINGS WORSE, BUT I HAVE ONLY BEEN ON IT FOR A WEEK, AND THEN AT HALF DOSE, TRYING TO EASE INTO IT.
SO FAR ALL THE OTHER DIAGNOSES SEEM TO BE ONLY MINIMALLY TREATABLE:
CFS, FMS, IBS, A.D.D., SPINAL STENOSIS, OSTEO ARTHRITIS, REALLY BAD KNEES, PLANTAR FACIETIS, TENDONITIS, LEARNING DISABLED IN HOUSEKEEPING!! (PROBABLY THE WORST OF ALL!)
WHAT A MESS I AM!!
Your hearing of body sounds is unusual if not unique.
