I have thyroid disease and have to take armour thyroid replacement. I have taking 12.5 twice a day
of atenolol for 4 years. The past 3 months the atenolol has stopped agreeing with me making me very
moody, and ill and i get tremors when i take them. My doc. has tried Inderal and toprol XL the past
couple of weeks and I have the same reaction to them. First, is there anything out there I can take
that will just stabalize your heartrate without effecting blood pressure and without effecting
thyroid replacement or absortption that is not a beta blocker? I only have mild MVP but whne I try
to cut down on the beta blocker (atenolol) I am still getting the symptoms I mentioned. I need to
either get on something else or wean of atenolol. Can someone please help? The atenolol is actually
causing panic attacks an my doc. has actulally given me ativan until we can figure out what to do.
He does not seem to have an answer and I am really in need of some help.
Thanks
