Bisoprolol and anxiety.
Hi All My first post but have been reading with interest for a while. My husband had AF about two years ago ( possibly a degree of heart failure as well as oedematous and breathless). Corrected with cardio version. Unfortunately has gone back into AF and prescribed Bisoprolol 5mg to slow heart rate.

Usefulness of Serum Triiodothyronine (T3) to Predict Outcomes in Patients Hospitalized With Acute Heart Failure
If you want your FT3 tested, see a cardiac doctor... It surely would be ironic if FT3 tests get classified as heart tests rather than endocrine due to the speiclaties using it extensively. The next question, does giving such patients T3 help? [i]Am J Cardiol. 2016 Nov 16. pii: S0002-9149(16)31819-7

Permanent atrial fibrillation in heart failure patients as another condition with increased reverse triiodothyronine concentration
Don't know abou tyou, but I am not convinced that the reverse T3 is quite so innocent as simply being a novel sign appears to imply. Unfortunately, for now, this appears under the "That's all folks!" banner. [i]Neuro Endocrinol Lett. 2016 Sep 18;37(4):337-342. [Epub ahead of print][/i]
