Hi K,
>Reversed? Wow.
As far as I know, tachycardiomyopathy is one of the rare types of heart failure which can often be reversed. Most types of heart failure are irreversible.
>I have 25 mg. pills here. I know he wants me to start taking it once a day. Do I eventually take it twice or more a day? How often does one take beta blockers to insure continuous coverage?
Atenolol is usually given once daily, at a dose of 25-100mg/day.... rarely up to ~150mg. It's occasionally given twice daily for angina.
>If you have severe anxiety (which I do when not medicated) then that can lead to depression, right (because your system starts making more cortisol instead of neurotransmitters?). So if an agent were to shut down the anxiety response, then depression is prevented, no?
Makes sense :-)
>How often do you not want to think clearly?
On a Sunday? ;-)
