I thought my sleep was finally getting better. Have been struggling since getting the flu in December. I take metoprolol 12.5 ER in morning and magnesium glycinate 200 mg at night. Now I keep waking up at 530/6am and cannot go back to sleep 😞 it’s so frustrating!! Not getting enough sleep makes my symptoms worse and makes it harder to function at work. I can deal with my symptoms so much better when I feel more rested. I don’t know what to do. Before getting the flu I had zero issues with sleeping and could even nap during the day and now I can’t nap at all.

I have such bad reactions to drugs and medications and I’m scared to try. It also doesn’t help that it seems like I was prescribed a bigger dose than most people seem to start? 1.5mg pill. I was recently diagnosed was post viral dysautonomia and POTS after the flu Dec 29. My main symptoms are tachycardia, adrenaline dumps, sleep issues (sometimes takes awhile to fall asleep and then sometimes I wake up and cannot go back to sleep) the little sleep I get isn’t quality, GI issues. I was a healthy marathon runner before Dec 29 and now my body is a mess. I also struggle to function to read things so documents regarding LDN might be tough for me to focus on and understand. Should I cut my pill to make it smaller??

I have been using Xhance for years because I have sinus issues, nasal polyps. I tried azelastine years ago and I feel it made me drowsy. My doctor thinks I should try again. What time is best to take it? Also recently diagnosed with post viral dysautonomia and POTS so I feel my body reacts differently to everything and I cannot have my heart increase.

Has anyone had any luck with an nyu sleep doctor? I went from sleeping with no issues to struggling with sleep since being sick in December.

Really hate antibiotics but understand the necessity of them. I had a toe infection with an ingrown toenail situation. I took it for 5 days and ended last Tuesday morning. I have IBS-C and have been dealing with post viral dysautonomia and POTS so my body is already a mess. My stools have been way looser than normal, not watery. I have already been eating pretty plain with lots of rice, chicken, carrots. I have to watch what I eat with ibs and low FODMAP. I was taking florastor with the antibiotics and switched back to my regular probiotics. I don’t know what else to do. Taking an Immodium here and there. Hoping it will get better in time :( any suggestions?

I had the flu in Dec and it caused severe sleep disruption and post viral dysautonomia and POTS. Started taking 200 magnesium glycinate and also metoprolol which seemed to give me a little sleep. Went from 3am wake ups or not being able to sleep at all. As time goes on it seems like the sleep I am getting is deep. I used to hear noises and wake up. Now I feel like my cat walks all over me and I don’t notice. I wake up feeling groggy and not refreshed no matter how long I sleep and I feel weirdly sad in the morning. Does magnesium glycinate cause any symptoms?

Looking for a podiatrist in midtown or midtown east that is familiar with running or is a runner and is amazing with ingrown toenails. I had one after the nyc marathon 2024 after my toenail fell off and have had two partial nail evulsions and I’m still having issues so I think I need another opinion

Outdoor runner but I have had some health stuff and now I am recommended by a doctor to do some light biking on recumbent bike only. Gym options? Not sure how many might have this type of bike or how many available?

Any ideas how to stop from happening? It used to end my sleep when I go on app and refresh. It’s very annoying

One of my doctors recommended getting a stelo as I’m suffering from post viral dysautonomia and feeling weird adrenaline type situations. They wanted to see if glucose was related. I eat dinner around 9pm and it’s usually rice, roast chicken, green beans and carrots. I get a spike after dinner. I lie down to go to sleep around 12:30am and try to sleep around 1am. Almost every night I get a notice glucose spike around 12:30am or sometimes 1:30am after I am already sleeping. What would be causing this?

Usually around this time my heart is around 80/90 when I walk to get my lunch. Today it shot to 118 which never happens since starting metoprolol. I don’t want to switch back to metoprolol for the side effects but maybe it was working better for my heart rate

My doctor is switching. Not sure if anything I am feeling is just my body being a mess or metoprolol. Been struggling with sleep, stomach issues and weird hunger/starvation feelings. Worried switching to ivabradine will bring the adrenaline dumps back because those were the worst. They seemed to have stopped once on metoprolol. Anyone have any experience switching? Ivabradine and adrenaline dumps?

Currently on metoprolol and not sure if this is the right medication for me. Anyone like carvedilol? Side effects?

I have been suffering from post viral dysautonomia and also weird symptoms my doctor is wondering if sugar/glucose related. I’m reading reviews and see that a stelo is not the best. Would it be able to give my any insight? I think they are trying to see if my glucose is changing a lot during the day and at night. I don’t mind spending the money to see if maybe this has been a problem. I am also on metoprolol which i heard might also affect glucose. Any insight is appreciated!

Maybe this isn’t the right medicine for me and I will be asking cardiologist next Friday.

Take 12.5 at 10am. Usually around noon I can feel heart rate going down. Will be in 60s while sitting at work. Today it will go up to 90s while sitting and then go back down.

The other day I went to get my lunch and heart soared to 166 which it has never ever happened before.

Maybe this isn’t the right medicine for me? :/

I am on 12.5 ER version
