First of all I am trying to make a post. I have received no help from this forum. I don't get many responses or zero notifications. I'm trying to ask if anyone has had issues with beta blockers and anxiety meds mixed together. I am in a terrible withdrawal of both, down to 98lbs, unable to eat anything as I am suddenly allergic to everything and I am bedridden 18 months now. I am desperately looking for HELP!!

Hi Beater Sorry to hear that you’re feeling so unwell! To write a new post just click on the ‘Write’ symbol directly underneath the AF Association name.

Then just ask your questions , giving as much information as you can about your medication etc!

Hi

These affected me ..

that was in 2008 Beta Blocker Metropolol - on exertion breathless. high mg 49 x 2 = couldnt breathe. Taken off 49.. mg in 2010 went too low.

Given after stroke & AF when I didnt want it. Breathless on exertion and fatigue.

Changed to Bisoprolol but although brought down a little to 156 H/R Day avge did not control me.

Introduced CCB Diltiazem 180mg 1/2 dose dropped 105 beats Day avg by private cardiac specialist.

Settled on Diltiazem 120mg and Bisoprolol now 1.25mg pm.

Controlled at last. Hoping for energy tp be restored.

STROKE, AF & Thyroid Cancer found 4 days into hospital stay.

IIt takes time to get it right.

cheers JOY. 73. (NZ)
