I'm not a doctor so I would never suggest that you do anything. I just said what I would do. I think you should see your doctor immediately so that you can get the dose adjustment. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Tell the secretary that it is an urgent situation.

I totally agree with AFRobin that you should NEVER change the dosage of a medication, or stop it entirely, especially a heart med, until you've spoken with your cardiologist. We are all so different, not just with what ails us, but with the reactions we have to the same medications. If something is going on with your heart and you are frightened, call your doctor STAT. If you can't speak directly to your cardiologist, have someone drive you to an Urgent Care Clinic or the ER. Better to be safe than sorry! Keep us posted!
