Hi Olivia

I was only on Bisoprolol fro 3 months before I started to wean off just after Xmas. If you do start to withdraw do it very very slowly over many months. You may be a lucky one with no withdrawal symptoms but if like me you will have a horrible time. The worse being insomnia and anxiety which I have never suffered with before. The first drop I made was only .1mg and this landed me in hospital for 3 days with a suspected stroke. They have put me down as a TIA but because I get the same symptoms every time I drop I know it was withdrawal. I with not be free of this nightmare until at least August this year.

Search Bisoprolol withdrawal on this site and you will see how many people suffer.

Thank you.

Yes I suspected I would have trouble if I tried.

Not ready to try yet, I have a feeling it will just add to my current problems 😔

I’m feeling a bit mad with the dr who prescribed them and how he did it at that time..lead me into a false sensE of security In my opinion.. ,without him saying much ...if I’d known then what I know now ...hey ho..

Take care and good luck 🌺
