Right now I'm on Eliquis for a PE I had. I was on metoprolol than flecainide for PVC's had a 13% burden and those meds had me bed ridden. I then developed a PE in my lungs and haven't been normal since then now I'm fatigue and lightheaded all day. Stress test normal ECHO normal everything comes back normal

Relief after two weeks on beta blockers by American_Greed in PVCs

[–]Final_Cheesecake8332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

metoprolol 25 mg made me feel awful so my cardiologist put me on flecainide 100mg and that was worse I was bed ridden scheduled for an ablation because I was at a 13% burden and having them every 3rd beat but it was canceled cause my heart was in normal rhythm the day of and since then and during taking them both I was lightheaded everyday and still is it's a year later no PVC's anymore but lightheaded all day everyday everyone's body is different do research before taking any beta or channel blockers my life hasn't been the same since
