Suggest Treatment For Rapid Heart Beat And Palpitations
I was diagonosed with rapid heart beats and palputations. They put me on metoprolol and it has slowed my heart down and helped with my palputations. However I have started having massive pressure in both ears. I had it prior to the meds but it wont go away. It keeps me half the night and I also wake up gasping for air. Please help.

Dear Sir/ Madam
Thanks for your query.
1. The metoprolol is not known to produce pressure in ears. Since it is working well for your palpitation, do not stop it without consulting your doctor.
2. I would recommend you to see your ear specialist for the pressure in ear. This may be related to some local problem in ears or may have a neurological cause.
Feel free to discuss further.
Sincerely
Sukhvinder
