thank you. im having so much symptoms now, it's really driving me crazy, until i am so afraid to go anywhere. last 2 days my bp went up to 180/? so high, face so hot and terrible dizziness, it's scaring me like mad. Till today i still feel it. now i must take atenolol 25mg(i hope to stop this medication causing me so sick, dizzy still here)not getting better with my dizzines,s i am still dizzy. i don't know if this got to do with Perimenapause? my hair is also dropping alot everyday. my h eart beating so fast. i am always so so sleepy every minute of my life, how am i suppose to go on like this. i don't know where to start, but i really hate taking atenolol. what should i do? worst i am so sleepy, feel like sleeping but cant' sleep. when i stand i feel so unbalanced, i m ust hold on to something. people find me so strange.
