How old are you if you don't mind me asking? Is metroprolol a beta blocker and Zetia a statin or a calcium channel blocker? How do you know if you need a calcium channel blocker do you just get a blood test done? I am only 39 and to the point where I'm scared to exercise and when I exercise I start thinking I'm getting pains in my arms. I'm terrified of having a bypass especially when you hear some of the stories on here. sorry to be so full of doom and gloom.

I am 36. I use to be on metropolol till after i had my daughter 3 years ago. I quit taking it after i had her cause it just made me to exhausted to take care of a newborn baby. I was on it due to palpatations. I only really get them right before my period. I like you am afraid to exercise. When i do exercise i get sore and have pain then it triggers the anxiety of it being my heart. This has been going on non stop for about 2 years. There is not one day that i dont think im having a heart attack. The only medication i take is ativan. Im to paranoid about medication to take the choleterol medicine they want me to take. Metropolol is a beta blocker. Zetia is a cholesterol medication. I get so depressed over worrying about this, i want my life back!!!!!

Cocaine is a curse fella's. I wish I was never cursed with it. I did it to help meet women and then met a few who loved it more then I did. This went on for 10 years or so and I just stopped not too long ago. I too wish I could take it all back , but I can't and neither can you Boston. I assume Heath Ledger would wish to take back that perscription drug combo he took the other night as well if he could only go back. The cemetary is full of people who wish they could go back in time. I know that I won't ever contribute more to my own demise , thats for sure. You always think your invincible until you find out your just human.

BTW to whoever asked above , I am 43 years old and Zetia is a cholesterol medicine but I don't believe its a statin.
