I was only on wellbutrin for appox 6 weeks when I started feeling like I had fluttering in my chest that made me cough. I also started to get very dizzy and light headed so I weaned myself off the Wellbutrin as it was the only thing I was taking. I still have the weird heart flutters a lot of the time and I'm worried the Wellbutrin may have caused some permanent problem.

Has anyone else had this type of reaction and if so, did it finally go away? I am very concerned.

Thanks

I am 20 yrs old, very healthy and never had a problem until 6 months after being on Yasmin. I never linked being on this BC and my side effects but I have been off of Yasmin for one month and seeing results. My side effects are subsiding, still have some relapses but nothing compared to what I went through. My side effects were nausea, lethary, weakness, irregular periods, chest pains, irregular breathing, weird heart palpitations, and Panic attacks, and depression. I have never been an anxious or depressed person so those last ones really threw me off. Now being off of it, I am returning to normal, still not completely normal which sucks, cause I was full of energy and a happy person. I really hope that I can be normal again and hope all this gets out of my system.

I had a series of racing heart events for a week and went to my doctor. She said it was probably stress and my heart was very strong. They stopped. I went for thyroid tests. My tests indicated I was well within the safety range. I ususally see a woman doctor who works with her husband, but this time I saw him. He said I was hypothryroid and if I did not take Armour, I would be at a cariologist's office. I got scared. I knew my numbers were good, but I caved. I started on 1/4 gram for a week and then to 1/2 for a week and then to 3/4. On my second night of 3/4 I was awakened 5 times with racing heart. I called my doctor and he told me stay on two. I questioned him as to whether this was appropriate for me and he said, DEFINITELY. I decided to withdraw. I cut back my meds. One night I woke up with a racing heart that gave me a nose bleed and I was very scared. Two nights later I woke up with a racing heart that scared me to death as it was going so incredibly fast that it shot down my left arm. I was afraid to go to sleep and started not being able to sleep. I final reached crisis and did not know what to do. I got in touch with my regular doctor who said I did not need the meds. This was corroborated by another doctor. I have not yet spoken to the doctor who misdiagnosed me and came close to causing a severe heart malfunction for me. I will not return to that doctor and will never even consider taking such drugs again.
I was clearly overdosed.

I am 26 years old and have been on toprol xl for 7 years. I started on 50 mg and now my doctor has increased the dosage to 200mg. I am exhausted 24-7, I have joint pain so bad I can hardly function. i can't even hardly keep up on my housework and I can't work. My hair is falling out and has for 2 years now. I have no sex drive which is ruining my marriage. I just had bloodwork done and my tryglyceride level is 915 which it is suppose to be below 150. I just saw an article that said beta blockers will raise tryglycerides(which is fat in your blood). Also I still have high blood pressure, rapid heart rate, chest pains, palpatations, and "episodes" where i become really hot, pale, nauseated, have severe chest pains, cant move, and weird heart beats and my doctor doesnt know whats wrong. My doctor puts me on a special diet and tells me to exercise. I eat better than most people and still weigh 200 lbs. and I am 5 feet tall. I try to exercise but I am so tired and hurt so much, it is just about impossible for me to do. I felt this way for many years and my doctor doesnt seem to care. she blows me off when i keep telling her how I feel. I didnt even really know toprol could cause such harsh side effects. and now that i know that is why i feel so bad I cant do anything about it because i tried one time to get off the toprol for one day and almost ended up in the hospital because of how bad i felt(my heart)
