    Hi Glyn,

    Join the club, I also get aches and pains since starting Bisoporol and  if I remember correctly I am on a lower dose than you 1.25mg  I get aches and pains in the thighs the tops of my feet and across my shoulders, and often the backs of my legs around the calves.

    apart from the aches have the meds helped you AF?

      Hi Glyn,

      I was getting all of that, went to see GP and he said the benefits outweigh the side effects, I am on a lower dose than you because of my BMI only being 46K 7st 7lb. so I have to have lower doses of everything because of my lack of weight.

      but don't take my word for it if it becomes unbearable just get it checked out.

      So these aches in legs and ribs are side effects do they go away in time or am I struck with it

      There are other drugs from the same family he could try.

      I became intolerant to Bisoprolol
