      From JudyD3 May 31

      Welcome to DS and the High Blood Pressure Group. I hope you will find the support and answers to your question? I am on a different medication and when my heart felt like it was racing, the doctor put me on a beta blocker (metoprolol). Now I haven't suffered with them, but I am tired a lot. Take care and hope you are having a great weekend. Hugs, Judy

      My blood pressure is normal. Occationally, I started to get these side effects: dizziness, irregular heart palpitations and breathing problems. Sometimes I feel like very tired. My concern is the heart palpitatios because sometimes they come very strong.
