Lupron and Zytiga side effects

In my experience with the same medications the hot flashes continue and fatigue comes and goes. One thing I have noticed lately is a fast beating heart that comes from nowhere (seemingly). I am having it checked by a cardiologist.
My hunch is his body is adjusting to the shock of the medicine. Perhaps it will lessen, as it did with me..

Best Regards

Zytiga causes a lot of heart issues. I’m on three different blood pressure medication‘s after being on Zytiga for 2 1/2 years. I never had blood pressure problems before Zytiga.

I started having a high pulse issue about a year ago. Just walking from the bedroom to the bathroom, 10 paces, would get my heart rate up to 120. I asked my cardiologist to switch one of the drugs I was taking to metoprolol and the heart rate issues stopped. I go to the gym and have a personal trainer work with me and when I get really going and feel my pulse should be at a very high rate It’s at 108. I found out about metoprolol from a friend who is a retired cardiologist.
