The NHS website says this in relation to furosemide

Tell your doctor or call 111 now if you get:

unexplained bruising or bleeding, a high temperature, sore throat and mouth ulcers these could be signs of a blood disorder

So maybe worth talking to a doctor about it tomorrow if possible, if not a call to 111 is in order.

Your on a high dose of Bisoprolol, mine was 1.25/daily. But we should not compare meds and why the doses are different. I think perhaps it's the start of the bugs season!

I think there's a nasty bug going round. A friend in Scotland has just had it. It seemed to be clearing up then flared up again. It's been 3 weeks now.

Thank you for everyone's replies I am seeing gp tomorrow for ecg and will get it checked I only asked on here because this won't go away and it is classed as side effects for bisoprolol and furosemide have tried lots of throat treatments and gargles first, so I just wondered whether this was something other people had experienced as a side effect will find out tomorrow!

Hope it isn't but it's best to check.
