Hello and thanks for your reply...
My health has not changed, it is good...but the fact that the episodes started about one hour after taking the 4 mg of Coversyl, led me to ask my Dr. about the possibility of trying a lower dose after noting that my BP readings were almost normal in the mornings before taking the pill... I actually have no idea if the episodes are even linked to blood pressure, but I assume it's a good way to start exploring the situation. From what I can determine, the feeling of increased heart rate, and immediate need to sit down has basically stopped since lowering the dose. However, I can get back to you after doing the 14 day monitor, and should have more information.
Thanks again, B.

@bbsimmons, from what I'm reading, Coversyl is a drug that works on high blood pressure but does not help with heart rate. I have labile hypertension, not your problem, and I take a Beta Blocker (Carvedilol) among the 3 meds to help with my tendency toward palpitations (racing heartbeat). It works well. Not sure this is helpful.
