Go back to your GP. It might or might not settle down. Knowing bisoprolol as I do it probably won't. They can give you an alternative, altho probably it won't be as good as bisoprolol. What were you on it for ? AF ?

Don't despair, and above all don't panic. We are here to support you.

Hi Harry, yes please talk to your GP he may be able to prescribe something more suitable for you. It's not good to leave your heart racing without medication, could damage it. I take another beta blocker called Metoprolol which suits me well.

What dose were you on? I had the same problem and am now on the lowest dose and feel fine again.

I suffered the same symptoms on Bisoprolol & Wafarin, I got a referral from my GP to see a consultant, I'm now on Diltiazem and Asprin, much much better.
