I recently had my blood pressure medicine changed, strengthened I am sorry to say. I was told by my physician that I now am taking a beta blocker, the most noticiable side effect he warned me about is during my workout, he said my heart would not be as fast....that I havent noticed....but I have noticed that my arms feel fatigued, dont know if it is a by product of my spottty training recently due to a broken pool pump, 2 funerals, and a kidney stone, or the new medicine....anyone here have any experience with this? thanks in advance.

    I've heard that ARBs are often not covered by insurance if you haven't been trialed on other therapies first, is that your experience? Depends on the insurance company. Some patients develop a dry cough with an ACEI (but not with an ARB).
