I take 10mg bisoprolol daily, so it's not an overdose. Do you have a rehab team or cardiologist you can talk to? Otherwise, your GP should help.

It must be so difficult for the medics, as we all respond differently to drugs. Have they given you dietary advice? I assume you know to cut down on salt.

I know I wish it was so easy for them and us ,, I think it’s crazy how we all respond different ,, no I just got given my bisoprolol at the hospital as my bp was 220/114 and told me take another if go to 170 ,, and that is it really had my review with nurse for thyroid 4 weeks later ,, I don’t know how or what is goin on I’m all muddled up ,, no diet advice and yeah I know not to eat salt ,, thank you for being in touch x
