To Mentors/Moderators:
I'm new on this feed. Here is my story in short: Diagnosed with Non-Sustained Ventricular Tachycardia I 47.2 and PVC's I 49.3 in 2017. Given Metoprolol did not tolerate due to GI symptoms. Given Bystolic did well took it for 12 months daily. At 12 mth follow up was told I could PRN it. Had no symptoms after that at all for 4 years. History of tinnitus 15 years. Has been worse the last 4 yrs.
Had COVID 4/28/22 very mild case. Husband had COVID Aug 31st very mild case as well. I was exposed of course but did't get COVID again. Neither of us were vaccinated. Our primary care Dr was hesitant with our heart backgrounds. On about Sept 23rd I woke up to heart symptoms (like in 2017) and this new odd symptom. LEG VIBRATIONS. I was a former Chiropractic assistant that did therapy on patients. I described these leg sensations like the electric stimulation (E-Stim) I used on patients that never goes away. After a couple of weeks it progressed into my thoracic region. Front, back and sides depending on how I was laying. Most of my symptoms increased at night. Or laying down for a nap mid day. NONE of my Dr's would address this, only cared about my heart of course. I kept saying it's too odd that BOTH heart/vib's same at the same time! I was put back on he Bystolic which in turn helped the Vibrations! That was another google search! However.... now the tinnitus and a new 'ear congestion' feeling has come about from the Bystolic. My Right ear is like being up in an airplane and wants to pop. I don't feel pressure, just the clogged/no hearing symptom. So a call into my Cardio Dr. to switch RX has resulted in him reaching back out to the 'Electrical Cardiologist' to recommend another RX outside the Beta-blocker family. Not good.... bc the vibrations were being helped by that! Oh my...
So now I have my heart symptoms, the vibrations, and somewhat increase in tinnitus since covid. Removing the Bystolic takes away the 'airplane feeling." I'd appreciate any/all info on my story that could help all the way around. Blessings.... Megg
