Side Effects - Ivabradine / Verapamil

[SVTSophie]

Hi Just wondering if anyone has been on Ivabradine and or Verapamil at the same time and experienced any side effects and been given an alternative?

Thanks x

Hi Dee That's okay, was just trying to find out as I've been having really hot flushes and shaky hands since I've been taking them (and the weight gain as you know!) so was wondering if anyone else had the same!

I'm just waiting for my referral to Southampton to come through since seeing the cardiologist last month, still getting all the pleasures of palps, chest pain and dizziness!

How have you been feeling since? Any luck with the job front yet? Make sure you keep us updated when you go next Friday xx

Oh no you poor thing!!

I know, I thought now I was off meds the weight would shift but it's not I've put on more if anything.

But at least I'm feeling better. Yes keep me updated please on how your getting on and what they say once your referred. That was like me I had all the side affects of meds and still was getting the SVT.

I have my hours back at work so that's good financially.

I will let you know what happens Friday xxxx

It's been a long time ago and you would have figured it out but I have read that these two can't be taken together
