... and relax (hopefully)!
Long story ahead! It’s been a few weeks of ‘things’. In early November hubby complained his head was sore, which can mean all sorts since his stroke and not always being able to explain very well. Two days later he had a cluster of little blisters by his eye - shingles. A course of Aciclovar stopped

Depression/ Anxiety
Hi, Thank you all who have helped me and to others who refuse to give up; you give me hope. Buspar, atenolol (I take it for high blood pressure but helps me with anxiety) and this support group is helping me to feel less depressed and afraid. Depression feels comfortable for me and “living” is scary

A bit disheartened and confused
A little over 2 years ago at age 36 I experienced the first of what I came to find out was an Afib episode (of course, not until after being told I was just having panic attacks by some very unhelpful ER personnel). This was about a week after a doctor had prescribed me rizatriptan for headaches (

Uric Acid stones
Chuck just had two kidney stones removed (one 17 mm and one 6 mm) and a stent inserted. Just got back the results and they are uric acid stones. Just read what can cause them on the dietary spectrum but wanted to find out if anyone else has had these on Xtandi, Eligard or Zometa? He’s had one before

Atenolol side affects.
I’m still struggling with Atenolol side affects. That copd feeling in my chest and the ache and heaviness it brings with it. . I lost a lot of weight throughout my whole ordeal and wondering with the less fat I’m feeling every twinge, every ache and every flutter. I was given a strong heart diagnosis

Cortisone Injections, drug interactions and ectopics
Nearly two weeks ago I had a cortisone injection in my foot as I have a problems with the tendons as well as osteoarthritis. My EP has said to increase my Atenolol if I’m having procedures that can put my body under stress or if I am ever unwell (I usually take 25mg so can double it). I took extra meds

Blood pressure meds & afib
Is anyone on Bendroflumethiazide for blood pressure along with an anti coagulant? I was on that before af diagnosed, kept my bp within a good range. With the af diagnosis it got changed to bisoprolol. BP not controlled so well, and the drug makes me feel crap even though it’s only 1.25 since earlier

Atenolol side affects
Currently on Atenolol. Side affects are fatigue, feeling low, heaviness in chest. Taking to lower bp and heart rate. 25 mg at night to reduce side affects. Just don’t feel good. It’s been 4 weeks. Will this pass? I’m 65 and in good health. Walk up to an average 4 miles a day. Eat well. Is there a beta

How long after starting Atenolol I should see my BP improvement?
I just have been prescribed atenolol 25mg. I have HBP and after 10mg Ramipril, 10mg Amlodipin i still have 160/100. I have red that Atenolol will lower my pulse but after first tablet there is nonchange whatsoever. Does it mean it wont qork on me or simply it needs few days to build up?

Feelings of ‘ panic’ at 3.5 mgs Prednisilone
Hi I am on 3.5 mgs of Pred after. 8yrs of my long journey with PMR and steroids. On the whole I’m doing well. Still stiffness in legs, hips and back but think this is more due to arthritis/ age than a resurgence of PMR. I had a blood test recently that showed evidence of cortisol although only a low

Atenolol . . . Are there any AFers still on it?
I have been taking 25 mg a day of atenolol for the past 20 years for HBP and now with AF for rate control. I understand it's less heart specific than some other beta blockers, but it seems to work for me. And my cardiologist is comfortable keeping me on it. I'm in permanent AF, QOL is great and I

Can a Beta Blocker Prevent Bone Loss?
Half of all women over age 50 will break a bone due to osteoporosis at some point during the rest of their lives. Even though several drugs that can prevent fractures are approved for the treatment of osteoporosis, their use is mostly limited to women over 60 who have already suffered a fracture or

Atenolol Thyroid Issues
I’ve been on atenolol for a year for rapid heartbeat following uterine surgery and menopause. There is a nodule on thyroid. No surgery yet, watching it. But my TSH level goes up occasionally. Two weeks ago it was 6.12. Doctor ordered free T4 but that was normal. But throat on right side feels inflamed

Atenolol withdrawal time period
Got a request to help you, unfortunately I don’t have a sure answer. I started going off my Atenolol about 2 months ago. At the time my doctor gave me a small dose of another blood pressure med to use in place of the atenolol. Never told me how to go about getting off the atenolol. I had to research
