When you girls started to recover......how did you feel when it was time to adjust your meds??? I've been feeling SOB and nauseated for about a week now. And, I feel ALOT of palps. I have normal heartbeats....but then I get a really strong one and I felt kinda faint. I really notice it when it's quiet at night and I'm lying down.

I've got a call into the doc.

If by adjusting your meds you mean you think you are taking too much... I had the same symptoms. About three weeks after my diagnosis, I began to get really dizzy and actually fainted a couple of times... I was taking too much medicine. Also, this happened again recently. My doctor cut my meds in fourths and I feel a lot better. I was very worried I was back in hf but wasn't! I also had the nausea, my doctor said that beta-blockers can do that to you!

Hope this is what you are looking for.

Thanks Mandy.

I'm just fixin' to walk out the door to go get my heart monitor. They just want to rule out anything else before we go forward. But, it only makes sense if I'm getting stronger to not need the strong doses anymore.
