Just replied to your other post on too much bisoprolol, I would want to get my condition and meds in control before having the confidence of booking a holiday. Just my opinion.

Best wishes

I agree with Buzby62 above, that would be my opinion too. Just wait until you've sorted your heart rate out a little better. Feel sorry for you taking that amount of Bisoprolol. When in a ward with Covid and Pneumonia a few years ago I refused to take 10mg of it and settled on 7.5mg. We need to know what your heart rate and BP is right now.

Hi NO.

You need to get stablized.

H/R 100 or under.

CP at rest 100 plus your age over 80 or under at rest. 140/80 ideal or less.

I was told 10mg maximum Biso... but it never controlled my H.Rate.

But CCB Diltiazem did. Start with low dose. It was instant control with me.

Read my other text under 15mg Bisoprolol is this too high.

For one you won't get insurance.

hi lain, I think I’d wait until the H/R is sorted. You want a holiday to enjoy and not be worrying about the H/R while you’re there.👍
