Six-month checkup with EP

6 month checkup with EP today. EKG was fine. But I have gained some weight over the summer and BP was a little high. So I will be doubling lisinopril for a while. When I told him I have been having little runs of tachycardia with exercise, he decided to keep me on sotalol for at least another 6 months. I'm a little disappointed with that decision. But overall a good visit.

I haven't had any problems for the last 2 years since my ablation, however the various tablets which I had tried earlier on included sotalol . This medication actually gave me the very symptoms it was trying to stop in other words mimicked the condition. My next tab was Metropolol and no problem with this one. I guess your doctor thinks you need something at this stage however, why not another tab to try out, just a thought.

Not what you're looking for?
