Metoprolol Withdrawal
Posted , 1 user is following.
I was on metoprolol for 3 to 4 days and I've been off of it for like 18 days now. I felt better for a few days after stopping, but I started feeling short of breath again. I think I was still taking flovent and abuterol. So I'm not even sure if the metoprolol is to blame? I was also taking hydroxyzine after stopping the metoprolol to help with the nervousness in my chest. All was fine for a few days, but the shortness of breath and palpitations came back after running around my yard. I also have minor chest pains and a racing heart, which is new. I've been to the hospital quite a few times within the past few weeks and they aren't worried. I did notice that my ph is off, potassium was a little low and glucose is anywhere between 120-130 in reference to mychart. I was given diabetic tussin for the mucus in my chest/lungs and potassium. Things were better until maybe the 3rd and 4th dose of potassium that caused my heart to race. I originally went to the dr for shortness of breath and no other problems. After moving, I also discovered mold under my mattress which is very common for gel mattresses. Now, I believe I never even needed anything besides the asthma medication. Everything fell apart after taking metoprolol. I forgot to mention that I also had a reaction after using abuterol for the last time. My whole body cramped up, I was tingling all over and unable to move which is why I even started the potassium. Never had a bad reaction to abuterol before. I'm not sure what's going on with me, but I want my old life back. Any advice?
