Been on bisoprolol since September different dose. . Also told doctors that I was struggling with breathing on it and cramps. Told to suck it up(ok not as blut as this )
Went off 2.5 mg bisoprolol for a few days at doctors request to see what side effects where meds and what was anixety and a problem with vitamins/ hormones. Anyway BP spiked last night long story short I took half the tablet at 3am then the other half 3pm today.
Within 20 mins the fingers and face/more jaw wanted to cramp/pins and needles . But my biggest problem came gradually. I couldn’t breath. Felt like I was being choke slightly and mouth very dry. Recalled doc (whom I had seen today). Forgot to mention how bad the cramps were as still had them but not as bad as have pco of vit d, We think plus for I could suddenly breath again.
She told me to try and put up with it. As lowering bp.
Went to see her over the course of two weeks and Bp was 140/92 and 140/90 on second week but I had gas problems including cough and chest pain and bloating. She told me gas and told me she see me next week. Told her pulse drops to 40 at times. anyway pain got worse so went to another GP told after taken on half and a small quarter of 2.5 dose (12am).Three hours later bp down to 125/78. He told me to take only 1.25 dose and sent me on my way pain in chest, cough etc has easier slightly today but I’m now scared about lower the dose of bisoprolol any advice would be helpful
as tried to stop immediately once before and panicked and shot bp up when pulse/Hr went mad.
