CARVEDILOL vs METOPROLOL

I guess I'm a member of the hypertension club now? I woke up after only a few hours of sleep with a fullness feeling in my chest. Went to the local clinic and they did an EKG. Told me to go to the ER right away. Now I'm on Carvedilol. Can't go back to work until my blood pressure stabilizes at a low

I have been on Valsartan 80MG once a day Carvedilol 6mg twice a day I started back in late may. And OMG I’ve felt out of reality. I’m clumsy now. I can’t focus. I’m sluggish. I’m always tired. People talk to me and I have to force my self to focus. I am not myself no more. I used to be aware. Sh

Hi! I'm a 41 y.o. woman who's had high blood pressure since I was 20. Although I am genetically predisposed to the condition from both parents, I also spent many years being very unhealthy and sedentary. After my weight increased to around 320 pounds and I was diagnosed with sleep apnea, I finally d

For context, I was initially in the ER back in June for a hypertensive crisis (post is in my profile). I've been on Carvedilol and Amlodipine since July, and my blood pressure has been relatively stable since. But this is the first time it's been this high. I took my temperature and it was 97.2, so

I have hypertension since I’m a kid, it came with my kidney disease which became end stage kidney disease before I turned 16. I had periods after started dialysis when I didn’t needed BP meds but in the last 6 moths it was horrible, 195/120 in the morning many times. I took 10 mg Amlodipine and 5 mg

Hello everyone! I just got home from a doctor's appointment due to some back pain. Like always, whenever I'm in the clinic, my heart cant stop beating and I'm very anxious and nervous for no reason. When the doctor took my BP, I told her that I'm feeling nervous. She told me to relax and I tried. Th

So last year I managed to hit 220/120 with a panic attack. In the hospital, I seemed to hover around 180/100 when I was discharged. Heavy drinker, eating terrible, very overweight, and under-medicated. 8 months have gone by and I've lost 60 pounds, been far more aware of my salt intake, cut out alc

I am currently taking amlodipine 2.5mg once a day and metoprolol 25mg twice a day. I just got this reading this morning. Can I stop taking amlodipine? Is this blood pressure low?

He wants to put me on 25mg metoprolol because I told him my BP is normal at home but always 160/100 in clinical settings. He said all these spikes over time add up and take a toll. Would it be worth taking? The elevated pulse was because I just got done running like 15-20 min ago.

Male , 26. So I had a bit of a shock yesterday. Went to the doctor for a regular check, they took my BP three times within a few minutes: 153/100 165/103 145/95 The doctor immediately prescribed me 25 mg metoprolol. But here’s the confusing part — at home I’ve been checking for the past 1.5 years, a

I have been working on my hypertension since 2019 when at a company health check my BP was 170/110. I am on metoprolol and htcz. I white coat quite badly but I'm working on that. Today at the office reading came in 115/70. Felt good to find the right doses.

I’ve had hypertension since my early 20’s and was initially prescribed lisinopril and later perindopril (both ace inhibitors) to control it. My numbers were usually “ok” with those meds, but unfortunately I developed the ace inhibitor cough and asked my doctors about alternatives. He originally pu

My last few doctors appts I’ve had high blood pressure and I chalked it up to white coat hypertension. And then it happened again so I opted to start tracking at home. Unfortunately it was high at home. I am overweight (I need to lose about 70lbs), but I’m only 32. I also have HORRIBLE anxiety abou

Quick background: For the last several years, I (33m, 6'2", 235 lbs) had been on different combinations of lisinopril (with and without HCTZ), amlodipine, and metoprolol and my pressure was generally in the 140 - 150 / 100 - 110 range. Couple months ago, I went to a new doctor (old doc moved away) a
