I don't know what to do about heart rate when I go to bed

So still when I go to bed my heart rate is ok but if I almost drift off to sleep or if I even move in bed it becomes rapid.

It is worse since coming off the beta blocker and I don't know how to straighten it out or if it's just anxiety or what.

Sounds normal to me. I get that when i drift off and then i get jolted up with rapid breathing and then i calm it down and go back to sleep. Lol

I've been having the irregular heart beating since this summer when I started Lex and Kpin. Not sure which one is doing it or maybe both but I think I'll get it checked out. In bed is the worst time because everything is quiet and you can really notice things more.

Yes night always brings on the bad stuff

Thank you Scaredy,
I am currently off bp meds but still have high bp. I have one med that I can take if it spikes up too high. I have only taken it once. I still have the itching and burning that I believe started while taking the metoprolol beta blocker. I had to try a loratidine (generic claritin) last night to see if it would help. Not much really but by morning the burning was less. I'm not sure if that med is one that might take a while to knock the histamine down or if it would work in a day. I'm very tired today and am not doing a while lot.

I got my labs back yesterday and I am gong to work on getting a few things up. My Vit D was 36, normal is 30-100 so it isn't out of range but it is low. I have a few lows in my blood that looks like I am closer to anemia so I may work on that. Also my potassium that has dropped on me a couple times is right on the very bottom number of normal. I paid cash for my lab work so I took copies over to my Dr. yesterday and left a message to see if she would call me. I also had a dental question. But again no call. I had gone there Friday, then called and went in yesterday and left a message also but she nor the nurse will call me back. Guess I must have pi$$ed her off somehow. I'm sick of paying my money for a Dr. to treat me crappy. The last one refused to take me off a med that was making me feel horrible.

Anyway yes I am still stressed. I am also working on doing anything I can to get this BP down on my own. I don't know if I can do it but I have lost weight and am still, have cut salt and sugar out of my diet, am doing hand exercises to reduce pressure and exercising when I actually sleep the night before. I hope in time this will make a difference.

I called the Dr. office again this afternoon to make sure it was ok to go to the Dentist with my bp and have my wisdom tooth extracted and the front desk said she would give the note to the nurse and again did not call me back.
