I was taken off beta blocker 25mg//welchol 6 tabs a day//because one physcian thought I had thyroid issues.The endocrinoloist said no, your thyroid levels are great, ultrasound great and follow up with blood panel in six weeks.meanwhile, I am experiencing shortness of breath, chest discomfort/flutter at times and chest pain.I told the nurse of my cardiologist, and the cardiologist wants to take one medicine at a time.But, I had been taking motroplol for past 1 1/2 years and dont feel well past two weeks.I was on synthroid for 12 days and off directly when told by endocrinologist that all clear.What is your advice as I am exhausted//cannot exercise due to breathing and later chest discomfort?
