does anyone have problems with increased mucus in nose, maybe sinuses or trouble swallowing with all the mucus so causes food to come back out at meal time, and for some time after, at least till nap time. Has to blow and blow and carry a cup for 'stuff'--
Hi I was on metoprolol only 25mg for i believe about 6 or 7 weeks but because it caused to many really awful side effects i was then put on cartizem but for the first few days because i went straight from the metoprolol to the cartizem my hr would suddenly go up to 100 to 106 but then my hr started to go to the normal range and now only sometimes does it go up a little higher than whats normal.Its very likely its the change in your dose causeing your heart to race a little but if it dosent get better soon or before you can see your doc go to the er but the hr of 80,s and 90,s is within whats normal.
I would continue to take the Metoprolol as your doctor instructed. In August I was taken off sotalol and put on Toprol 25mg twice and day, then in November my EP cut it down to 25mg once a day. At first I felt my heart race, but eventually it did stablize. In February I am hoping to been taken off the toprol completely.
Hello...
A HR in the 80's to low 90's really isn't considered a tachy state (what activity are you doing when you check your pulse)? I would continue to do what your Dr suggested. If you notice your rate continues to increase, I'm sure that there is a Dr covering the practice while he is away...
