Tenormin side effects

i was put on tenormin in 1988 for av node block and border line high blood preasure.started off taking 25mg a day .now im taking 50mg two times a day.im tired all the time. my legs hurt.my hands stay cold.but ive heard u cant just stop taking tenormin .ive been taking it 20 years.have seen myself just go down.

I have been on Atenolol (only 12 mg a day) half a pill, for 4 months now. I have had dizziness most of the time, ice cold hands and feet, numb feeling in my legs, severe pain in my chest, which turned out to be costachondritis. Very slow heart rate 50 bpm. Low blood pressure 98/54. Dull pain in both my sides and back. I did not have any of these symptoms until I started Atenolol I hate the way I feel. However, when I try to stop it, my heart starts racing. I have been taking it only for my racing heart (as the Dr. says I have atrial fibrillation.) I wish there was a better med without these bad side effects.

HAIR LOSS IS AWFUL. tired all the time, I want another high blood pressure medication I am almost bald. This is awful

I was on Atenolol (Tenormin) since June 1998. Ever so gradually, I began to lose my voice to the point that I was sent to speech therapy after being diagnosed with Adductor Spasmodic Dysphonia by a throat doctor. It was of no help.. and made the doctor mad, frustrated the voice therapist. I was also having intermittant problems swallowing for no apparent physical reason. After quitting taking Atenolol, my voice began to slowly return. Unfortunately I have gotten into some bad habits that I now must break (using false vocal cords for speaking).. But the cause was most definitely the Atenlol..

Went on in three month agao, hands always gold,, feet tingling, hands tingling and tired all the time, gotta off it 3 days ago, starting to feel like myself!!!

I have been on tenormin for 19 years. I think it effected my thyroid. I was on it for 7 yrs, was tired and cold all the time. Was put on thyroid medicine. I am still cold all the time, read on-line that tenormin slows down blood flow to hands and feet and can cause coldness. Also having hair loss and anxiety. It appears that the tenormin affected my thryoid, the thryoid medicine causes the anxiety - and the cycle continues! **tenormin is also know as atenolol -- this website has more entries for atenolol side effects, I suggest you read them also**

I have been on tenormin for about 2 months now. About a week ago I started experiencing mild chest pain/discomfort when I walk. My cardiologist says this is not a side effect, has anyone else experienced this?
