Constant ectopic heat beats with anything I do. I can get up from my desk, go up stairs, reach for something, lay down.. uggh can this really be anxiety driven??? I’m also on metoprolol 12.5 twice a day.

Hi Ceelos81, I too am on Metoprolol 25mg once a day. Call your doctor

and let him know how these beats are breaking through. It might be a

matter of adjusting the dose or time of day you take it or adding another

medication. Only your doctor can decide what is best for you knowing your

health history. I wish you well. x

Hi

Yes when I get flare ups basically anything can set them off and it’s rubbish!!! I take bisoprolo 5mg am & 1.25 mg around 5pm

Which has helped a lot & if they are really bad I take another 1.25 mg I discussed

This with cardiologist but normally it’s now

Well controlled: can’t eat large meals & occasionally sip alcohol 🍷 stay away from

Carb food or they will start up & last for hours! They are not dangerous but extremely unpleasant
