Dr put me on corig 12.5 twice a day supposedly for bp and because of angina .....so far have not been able to take this much everyday because just one 12.5 makes me have a heart rate of 55 to 59 mostly for over 9 to twelve hours but bp can still be like 205/77 or 176/80 pulse 59

I see you are in the States and your condition has been worsening. If you have unstable angina or some other developing heart condition you really need to have a thorough review with your GP to ensure that medication is sufficient

i feel you should contact the prescribing doctor, and explain what is happening - you could also contact your pharmacist and askfor their advice
