A couple times I had a racing heart rate. The last time (@ 8 years ago) it was 180 bpm. My GP called an ambulance to take me to the hospital. The paramedics gave me IV medication got it back to a normal rhythm. They ran test and couldn’t find anything wrong. Lately I have had pounding in my head and some dizziness. Found out my BP is high. I have always had low BP. I just had carpel tunnel surgery a month ago. I know it wasnt high then because they would not have done the surgery. I went to my cardiologist and he thinks I have an extra signal in my heart and thats causing the high BP and other symptoms. He gave me Metoprolol and said if it doesn’t help I will need the surgery to burn the extra signal. Has anyone had high BP as
a symptom? Also I’ve taken the medicine for about a week and my BP is still high sometimes. When I went to my other dr I see for Osteoparosis my BP was 184/90. She was very concerned, and I am too. Should I wait and give the medicine more time to work or should I go back to the Cardiologist and see what he thinks? Thanks
