Hi Tippytwo

It’s probably the statin (or magnesium) causing the wind and not the BB. Should wear off after a while.

Hi Tippytwo. Er I don’t think it’s the beta blocker. May be the thyroid meds.

Thanks for replying, no I don’t think it’s the Thyroid tablets, I have been taking them for a long time😊

Maybe it’s the BB, as I have not been taking my Statins I know I know,🥴

or the mag, so I can’t say it’s them , but will start tonight lower dose ( it’s gone down to 20mg.......)

Hope everyone is ok 👍😊

Hi Tippytwo. Having gone from no meds this time last year, to 11 pills a day now, including 40mg Atorvastatin and 5mg (2 x 2.5mg) Bisoprolol, my wind has suddenly become particularly frequent and FOUL!! But I don't know which of the pills is responsible. Sorry, that doesn't help you, except to let you know you're not alone!

I would be inclined to blame he magnesium. It does that to me.
