"I have got to a point where I am desperate with the symptoms I get: ectopic heartbeats, palpitations, flutters. I get a heaviness in the chest, and it feels like it goes to my throat. I think I always suffered mildly with the above conditions. ECGs, 24-hour monitors say nothing wrong. I had a COVID vaccine last October, was really unwell, and the arrhythmias became daily. I have battled to be referred to a cardiologist and sit and wait. Near to tears, I said to my GP, I am so low, do not enjoy life because of how unpleasant the arrhythmias are, and she put me on 10 mgs 3x daily @ 10 mgs a tablet. I take 2, but still get a mild form of palpitations, etc. Just not hitting the spot, this is not anxiety-induced, this is heart. I need something else or a different dose, take Irbesartan too. I went downhill after my last COVID vaccine and want to enjoy life again."

"On 80 mg ER twice a day for palpitations and anxiety/panic attacks. Works really well. Stops the heart rate from going up. Before I had it, I got pulled over, and my heart pounded so hard I could swear it would explode. Then I had some issues with someone, and for one, I usually freak out and have a pounding heart. I’m just so much more calm. It’s like an anxiety and heart medication all in one."
