Thanks Phillipa. There are other beta blockers, but all tend to lower blood pressure. Apparently a beta blocker such as lopressor is essential for people who are post by-pass. Without it, my resting heart rate is too high, like 90 or above.
With it, as you have indicated my heart rate doesn't even go up with exercise, but stays in the range of 70 all day long, but this is norml for beta blockers.
Sincerely,
Richard
