During this same time I developed SSS and AFIB and then had a heart attack. After another month I asked my Dr. to put me back on Atenolol and now, 2 months later, I now have a normal sinus heart rythum, no more AFIB, Pulse is 60 to 80 BPM and my blood pressure is in the 120's to low 130's. I am having Metoprolol added to my medical record as an allergic drug for me.

I take this for BP and chest pain for nearly a year now. It has improved my life as my chest pains happen much less often and when they do come they are not as severe.

I take this for BP and chest pain for nearly a year now. It has improved my life as my chest pains happen much less often and when they do come they are not as severe. My BP can go high as it ever did but most of the time it is perfect which it hasn't been for many years. I don't understand all the side effects everyone has listed in their reviews, I only had minor joint pain for 2-3 weeks and it went away, no other side effects. I feel much better taking this medication.
