Afib leads to heart failure

Hi again,

Gosh, your Metoprolol dose is very high, and I've never heard of the high dosage, especially twice daily. The morning after taking my first Metoprolol, I woke up at 0300 fully rested, whereas before that, I slept until 0830, then still felt exhausted. I was puzzled at first, then remembered that I'd taken the first pill the night before, so I got up and Googled it, and it said that the drug could work in about two hours. You're making a smart move by holding off until you can confirm the dosage. Good luck to you. My VA doctor is much better than my other two private practice doctors, who always seem to be in a hurry to get the next patient.

Thanks for the reply. I did google Metoprolol and they said 400MG max a day but I still want to check with Dr before I go with this. I just seems like a big dose to start with. I would rather start small and work up after seeing some of the side affects they list. I am on a BiPap ASV that does gives me a little more rest but I begin to tire early in the day .

Thanks again.
