@windyshores hi
I was put on Bisoprolol at 2.5 and my rate dropped to 50 , which was quite low
So I cut my pill in half and it stayed at 60 but then all of a sudden one morning my Afib kicked in again . The problem with the meds is causing high anxiety , I’m sure there causing the problem
So I was told to go back to 2.5 , because 50 heart rate was ok, as long as it didn’t drop below that
I don’t feel comfortable with that , I have been on Coumadin for 20 years because of a couple clots , I’m not real sure about being on blood thinners either . I totally agree with you on the blood thinners

@lynlaughlin I am a lay person, long time heart issues. Strictly my opinion but I would sure get a second opinion on the recommendation that a "50 heart rate was ok, as long as it didn't drop below that"
Not a recommendation my husband or I have ever been given. Best wishes.
