I'm in the UK | M | 57 | 14 days | 5/5/2004 | 3 | | 4/23/2004 | 3 | tachycardia | I always have cold hands and feet. I actually think that the temormin might have cause some heart palpitations also. It did control the tachycardia however. My husband thought that I became a bit spacey on this medication. I have a very decreased exercise tolerence. | 37 | 13 days | 4/23/2004 | 1 | Atrial fib | fatigue,trouble breathing,feeling very cold,headache,cough | I am also taking amiodarone but was told to stop tenormin | F | 56 | 6 weeks | 3/15/2004 | 4 | HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE | NONE | F | 32 | 1 days | 2/19/2004 | 4 | HEART | NONE | M | 60 | | 11/12/2003 | 4 | High BP | None | BP is in 120/80 range w/ med | M | 61 | 7 years | 8/28/2003 | 2 | high blood pressure | cold hands and feet, muscle pain | M | 62 | 2 months | 4/27/2003 | 5 | Palpitations (PSVT & PAT) | Taking 25mg 1 x per day for 23 years. Tenormin has been the only drug that has helped my dysrythmias. Calcium blockers, digitalis drugs and other anti-arrythmia meds were of no help. | This drug gives me peice of mine every day knowing that I can escape the panic that multiple palpitation episodes can do to me. | 47 | 23 years | 3/19/2003 | 4 | palpatations | I really don't know because I am on 3 other medications. I feel good, so I really don't know. The only problem I have is stomach problems, but I don't know if it is related to this drug. | F | 47 | 1 years | 1/16/2003 | 3 | post surgical atrial flutter | labored breathing hair loss exhausted and very low pulse rate..this was combined with amiodarone..so I am not sure of the combined side effects | F | 48 | 4 months | 1/5/2003 | 3 | High Blood Pressure | It seemed to take 6 weeks before I had any side effects which were dizziness/lightheadedness and memory loss (especially short term). Although I decreased the dose from 25 mg to 12 mg the dizziness and memory loss just got worse. My heart rate was reduced and my blood pressure was normal but it's just not worth feeling dizzy and forgetful all the time. It's time to try something else. | F | 43 | 4 months | 11/4/2002 | 4 | High Blood pressure, Rapid Heart Ra | None observed | It works well for me. It keeps my heart rate down and it keeps my blood presure in check. I could not function well without it. | M | 25 | 3 years | 10/26/2002 | 3 | headaches, slight hypertension | While taking this medication it became nearly impossible for me to stick with my exercise regime. I became easily winded because it kept my heart rate way down. 2 months prior to this I had run a marathon. While taking it walking up a steep inlcine or stairs had me winded. | the headaches went away - might have been a coincidence. They never came back even when I stopped the drug. If you';re going to tkae it, take it before bed. | F | 48 | 60 days | 3/11/2002 | 4 | high blood pressure | dizzy, light headedd | M | 42 | 1 years | 11/26/2001 |
