I guess I could always Jott myself. www.jott.com Very cool service if you ask me.

Since I used to take two 50MG tabs, I initially chose 10:00 and 10:00, because I knew I would be awake by both of those times. I work as a software consultant, so I keep REALLY strange hours. My problem was that my 10:00PM Metoprolol was causing insomnia, so that's why they switched me over to...

I would appreciate any feedback anyone would have on this. I'm coming up on my one-year anniversary of my Mitral Valve repair. The only medications I take now are one 50MG Extended Release Metoprolol at 10:00AM. Along with that, I take one low dose aspirin. Since I started taking my...

That's what I get for being absent over the summer. We are in the middle Tennessee area and I would love to come. However, we are going to be down visiting my family in Louisiana over those dates. Hopefully next time!

I appreciate the link I appreciate the link I've always been a huge Tony Snow fan. Loved the fact that Tony never let the media get away with distorting the truth. He did it with Style too. I will truly miss him.

My Status My Status When I initially was switched to Metoprolol, I was taking 50MG twice a day. It made me really light headed since my BP was so low. So my cardiologist switched me to 25MG twice a day. That helped my blood pressure. It was around that time however, that I started having...

Screen Name Screen Name Can somebody tell me what screen name she used? I was hoping to go back and ready some of her previous posts. It's disheartening when somebody goes this young. My condolences to the family.

Got on an Airplane?? Got on an Airplane?? I'm betting that somebody else got shingles after being on that airplane with you. :D just kidding!! I wish I had known about not breaking the blisters last week. I was holding a wet warm wash cloth against my face to try and get a little relief...

I feel your pain!! I feel your pain!! Hey Lorie. When I started reading your post, I immediately thought you had what I had. On day six after I got home from my valve repair, I woke up around 3:30 in the morning and had crushing chest pains that went all the way across my chest. It...

Interesting Interesting I can say that I don't remember feeling bad over the last month. In fact, I've felt great since they took my gall bladder out. I'm actually continuing to take my BP, Pulse, Temp, Weight, etc. every morning. Everything has been a-ok. As for catching everything from...

Yes, the pain is bad Yes, the pain is bad For those of you who have had shingles, how long did it take you to catch it before you went on your antiviral medication? I can't remember if the blisters started appearing on Monday of Last week, or on Sunday evening, but I would have started the...

Yes I Did Yes I Did I did have chicken pox when I was a child. All the doctors have told me that it is easy to get Shingles when your immune system is down. Of course, I'm sure that a major heart surgery, followed by a gall bladder removal just two months later can possibly cause your...

Don't take this post as me venting. I'm really looking for feedback to make sure I'm covering all my bases. Last Monday I left early from work because I thought I had the beginnings of a migraine. Slept for a couple hours, still had it when I woke up. On Tuesday I woke up with what I thought...
