I didn't have any problems with Metopolol , My primary doctor wanted me to see a cardiologist because after having a chest cold almost 3 months with no clearing. She figured that I was having heart failure which the cardiologist didn't find. My blood pressure was really high ( 184/86) so he took me off Metoprol and put me on Cavedilol. I think that the side effects are leaving, but I have this balancing problem. The Clinical Pharmacistt which I saw on yesterday, He is a partner of the Cardiologist, said that the medicine would not cause this and it looks liike my equilibrium is off. I never had this problem when changing medicines.

These so called xperts will tell u whatever the book says. I was on coreg and after 3 months had dizziness. It progressed over the next few months. I had a catherization to check for,arrhythmia came,back,normal. Had a ct scan and tilt tabl test and all normal. Went to an Ent and all good. So now I’m weaning off coreg and it’s the second week. I’ve gone 4 days without and had chills and headaches., today was good except having some sob. So I took one and will see what happens. My,dizzy has been better but will see what happens with the sob. Also I’m I’m 5 mg of lisinopril.
