Sorry I can't help. I have PSVT and ectopics but no a-fib. When I'm doing something active and my heart jumps into PSVT, I just take a break until it turns itself off. But I don't stop living my life. I keep going. Does the cardio know you stopped the Toprol? If it drags you down that much, ask about a different medication.
No body, wants to share views.. i need your help
