I went on vacation over drink , then had palpitation during the night . I went to thé hospital at Punta Cana. Thé doctor did a lot of test for 36 hours . My heart was ok but i felt palpitation during thé night or when i slept . Thé doctor gave me Bisoprolol 1.25 daily. I took it for 5 days , 1.25 daily and when i arrive un Canada i stop for 4 days , then i restart and its be en around 7 days i took them daily 1.25 . Thé thing is that i never had heart problem , im 28 years old and i do sports. I want to stop taking them becaude i am afraif of disturbing my natural heart fonction and i feel that maybe i have anxiety and i dont think i need Bisprolol. Because i took them for 7 days or Maybe 8 days , 1.25 daily

Coule i stop taking them and maybe do exercice eat well and do yoga without beeing afraid because i took 1.25 daily for 8 days in row. Thank you for your precious respond

Hi Robert,

Some people get palpitations through drinking and it's best to have another check up with your doctor now. The beta blocker you mention is to keep the rate down so if you haven't had any more palpitations they may well feel you could stop but may want to just check for any issues first. Do do all the sensible things you mention too so that you stay healthy! Good luck!

I wouldn’t worry as you have an appointment soon and you are on a very low dose so it won’t do any harm either way. I was on that dose for a few days but have a low heart rate so stopped it after a few days. Be advised by your doctor.

Thank you for your response Rosy

It means a lot

Have good day ❤️

Hi Robert

Unless you feel the Bisoprolol is giving you unpleasant side effects, it might be a good idea to continue it until your doctor sees you. It can be quite helpful if you are feeling anxious.

Perhaps take it easy with the sport until you have a diagnosis.

Let us know how you get on.
