heartbeat too fast with congestive heart failure

yes , several years ago: my heart was beating at 130 or more when i was at rest. if this would continue then the heart would stiffen and an early death. the doctor prescribed three medications for the heart. it has been working now for about five years. i am eighty years of age and still feel well. each person is a different case so i do not think it would be wise to reveal the medications prescribed. perhaps a second opinion with a new doctor might be wise for your well being. take care of yourself and with love, peach barbara.

Thanks, Barbara. I've been thinking of getting a second opinion for a while. Maybe now is the time. I'm glad you found a solution to your problem.

For my congestive heart failure, my dosage of 1/2 of a 6.25 of carvedilol has been increased to a full 6.25 twice a day. My BP looks better, not perfect, and my heartbeat is a little less (under 95), but now my feet get very cold. Have I hurt my circulation by the increase in Carvedilol? Sounds silly but I am new at all this. I am 70. My mother died of congestive heart failure at 73. Her only medication was lasix. Arlene
