Latacia Posted August 14, 2011 Report Posted August 14, 2011 So, I had an allergic reaction to toprol xl and bystolic made my headaches come back now the doc puts me on this.It's a calcium-channel blocker. Is anyone else on this type of medication? Does it work for you? Quote
peregrine Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 The cardiac EP put me on 120mg nightly last week. So far it does seem to be decreasing the heart rate (not my resting HR, just the exercising HR, and only the high end of it); note that she put me on it for the atrial tachycardia rather than orthostatic stuff. It doesn't seem to do anything for the spaciness, nausea, sweating, other autonomic nervous system stuff; just the heart rate. Quote
Latacia Posted October 13, 2011 Author Report Posted October 13, 2011 Yea, I'm still on it. The only thing it helps with is my heart rate and sometimes I can still feel my heart beating too fast especially when walking to much. I take 120mg in the morning. Quote
