A Simple Approach To Restless Leg Treatment

Written by admin on August 28, 2010 – 2:01 pm -

For many years restless leg was not recognized as a medical condition. Now many doctors have gone to the other extreme by prescribing medication before exploring other possibilities.
Restless leg syndrome, or RLS, is a trivial condition, which makes it difficult to assess and treat but this cautious approach makes more sense. Learn more about restless leg syndrome and treatment methods from our medical expert in this free video. Expert: Taylor Smith Bio: Taylor Smith, CMA, is a multifaceted Certified Medical Assistant.

Taking beta blockers for SVT & I also have Sleep Apnea – Am I risk of Sudden Aryth Death Syndrome?

Written by admin on August 9, 2010 – 8:55 pm -

Please help. I have SVT and I am currently awaiting a further appointment following my test result for sleep apnea.
Can you die of Sudden Arythmic Death Syndrome or Sleep Apnea whilst taking Beta Blockers? Am I at risk?

I take a mild 1.25 mg of bisoprolol beta blocker, as any more than that reduces my blood pressure. (Symptoms of my SVT are very infrequent on medication. Cardiologist recommended ablation butI’m too scared. He stated that SVT is nothing to worry about but the internet suggests otherwise )
I will truly appreciate your advice please!
I am 30, slim and have a healthy lifestyle
