hi there,

Around 4 weeks ago I started taking 2.5mg bisoprolol and i was really pleased i didnt seem to have any side effects at all. It worked as it should, lowered my heart rate and I've been feeling so much better. However around a week ago i started to get some odd leg pains and every day this week my legs have either felt heavy and weak or had random pains, accompanied by pins and needs in my feet at times.

I've seen some horror stories on here of people who have experienced awful side effects and never felt better, but i am wondering if anyone has had similar issues and did adjust and feel better? Right now i feel i am caught between a rock and a hard place potentially having to choose between a racing heart and issues that accompany that, or leg pains and weakness.

Thanks to anyone who responds

    I took bisoprolol for a year and at first I wasn't even aware of the side effects, but over time I started to experience insomnia, body aches, weakness and other symptoms. If there is another therapy besides bisoprolol, I would advise it. Right now I'm trying to recover from the harm that this medicine did to me.
