Brief Answer:
Try Carvedilol...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concerns.
As atenolol has not helped you, then, I suggest to try Carvedilol. There are some of my patients with poly-neuropathy who have tried Carvedilol and have reported positive feedback.
Actually, Carvedilol is also having alpha-blocking effect which might give relief to poly-neuropathy pain you are experiencing. So, I suggest to discuss about taking Carvedilol with your cardiologist if it could be a beneficial alternative for you.
Hope it was of help! Let me know if I can assist you further!
