Getting them still

[Philc345]

Hi guys

So I've been on bisoprolol 2.5mg for a week now but I'm still getting the eptopics and the palpations my cardiologist said I could up the dose to 5.mg but in your experiences do you think I've given them long enough to start working or do you think I should try something like soltalol and see if that helps I've got doctors monday morning but I dont see the cardiologist for another 3 months

Hi Phil. Does your doctor have plans to build up your bisoprolol gradually, I ask because I take 10mg daily

It would have taken a month to 2 months as they stabilised me for a week in hospital when my heart and pulse first went out of control

Yes thank you, I have altered my lifestyle a bit, I no longer drink or smoke and I go to the gym twice a week. I do get physically tired though. I hope this helps and I hope you feel better soon
