That BP is getting dangerous. Ring 111 for advice. They will arrange an ambulance to A&E if need be.

Hi tigerjuz86, Have you start your prescription atorvastatin for high cholesteroI yet, if not, it's probably the Bisoprolol. Bisoprolol is being used for my HF. Started having lower blood pressure and pulse and I was feeling hypered up after taking 1/2 of 5 mg. I see heart doctor in couple of weeks. I am having swelling in feet lately too. I am backing up to 1/4 of 5 mg. It worked better for me. Need blood work to check kidney and liver though. Do you have heart problems?

[tigerjuz86 in reply to Hidden]

Hi 🙋🏻‍♀️,, I started 5 days ago on the atorvastin ,, I wasn’t on them when wrote this though I don’t understand though as I’ve was okay up until this last week it’s like even going for a walk it hurts me next morning in upper body and like not short of breath but like I’m not Gettin my usual air in and I’ve never had that problem ,, aw I hope it good news for you 🙏 that’s not good I’m sorry ur avin those troubles , I might ave to ask to reduce mine maybe then and see how i go from there ,, I don’t have heart problems that I know of just newly diagnosed high bp and cholesterol,, wishing you the best on results please keep me updated im sure you be fine ,, thank you for reply 🙂x

tigerjuz86 how are you doing? Didn't mention if you were on any other medication and what was your mg on the bisoprolol? I was put on 5mg one a day. To much for me. My body is not use to medication so 1/4 for 2 weeks, then went to 1/2. Pulse is good but blood pressure is increasing on top. I am also on Entrestro . Each medication is doing something different. Hope you are doing well and everything is better.

Yeah it helps thank you bit more understanding so I should ask for further investigation,, also anyone suffered with stomach bloating and dull pain like left rib after taking bisoprolol ? x

[Cat04 in reply to tigerjuz86]

I get stomach bloating but I've no idea whether it's because of the bisoprolol 😕
