Has Helped Me a Great Deal

used to have a heart rate of 125 on average. No doctor ever thought anything of this. I am now 52. And I have always been this way. Finally, I was short of breath, and my heart was racing, and I am a type II diabetic, because of being on statins. Now I am off the statins, and on Toprol XL and my breathing is normal for the first time in YEARS, thanks to a cardiologist who listened to me. Luckily I got insurance this year that allows me to see specialists without a referral, so I chose the cardiologist. I went to two. The second one said, hasn't anyone ever told you this isn't normal? All my life I have suffered with this. Now at last I have relief and some one is watching my cardiac health. My mother died of AFIB two years ago. From what? A fast, irregular heart rate.
