I’m 20 and have just found out I have atrial tachycardia in February after having symptoms for years. I have Been put on bisoprolol and had been feeling horrible with side effects to the point where I have missed weeks of work from being to dizzy to drive and chest discomfort. Has anyone else experienced bad side effects from this?

Really makes me consider going straight for the ablation

You should contact your GP/Cardiologist ASAP whenever you experience bad side effects like this, there are always alternatives that may suit you better.

It’s been a fighting battle for the past two months with the GP never really getting anywhere useful. Dose was put up then put down then spilt to 1.25 twice a day and that’s where I am currently. Going to try to speak to GP tomorrow but again not sure what they’ll suggest. Can’t seem to get in touch with my cardiologist unfortunately.

If playing with dosage & timing is not working, then ask about any alternatives.

I feel your pain as I’m going through similar, my BP is too low so GP & I have been trying different dosages & timings!
