Sinus Tachycardia

by Shorty1981, Jul 13, 2008 11:38PM
I was recently told I had Sinus Tachycarida a few months ago. My BP got as high as 182/118 pulse 112. I was throwing PVS with an irregular heartbeat.  Did the Holter Monitor, the echocardiogram and the stress test.   Got put on Toprol 50 mg a day and a antidepressant Cilitopram.  Gained over 25 pounds while taking the Ciliopram so my doc took me off of it.  Been off of it for about a month now and I was doing great until today.  I've been extremely tired like I was going to pass out and dizzy and just really out of it.  Not lethargic, but close to it.  Anxiety runs in my family and I am trying my best not to be like my mother and freak out all the time.  She has major panic attacks which I am trying not to do.  I don't know what to do and I am trying to just carry on with life as usual.  I am 5'0 26 years old weigh 198 pounds.  I don't want to take any other antipdepressants because if I gain any more weight I really will become depressed.  Is there anybody out there who can tell me what I can do?
