First real walk since coming off Beta blockers!

So my GP has taken me off Beta blockers.

This is my 3rd day without so I want things to stabilise before going for a run even though the GP said I can !

HR still a little eractic.

May take a little while to settle down.

Good walk for you today Ian, just take things easy until you feel that you can go a slow very short run, perhaps around 30 seconds.

Thanks Alan.. I can manage more than 30 seconds !

The GP is more than happy for me to continue running 30 minutes for now

I'm told it can take around 3 days to be out of the system

Yes, it's a bit of trial and error with the meds 😐🤔🙂
