I have a heart failure specialist at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville. He states the Coreg (Carvididol generic) can and will reduce heart rate. When I started taking Entresto and Coreg my pulse rate went down into the 40s and was causing my pacemaker to pulse me up constantly. The pace clinic then raised my regular pulsing rate to 70 and problems went away.

What I would do is do some research on Coreg and side affects. Then bring that research to your cardiologist and discuss the heart rate.

Can you explain what a STEMI is? I too have a EF of 20 for decades now so interested in what a Stemi is.

Thank you for your reply. A stemi stands for an st elevated myocardial infarction. A heart attack of the left anterior side. Our cardiologist wants to put in a pacemaker to pace up the heart rate, but I’d like to try a change in medication before a pacemaker. It’s only been 3 months and his Ef has already improved to more than what they thought it would. It just seems pretty extreme to put in a pacemaker if it’s a side effect of the medication. Cardiologist said that if we put the pacemaker in , then he can take more Coreg. This sounds crazy to me.
