Guest guest Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 I definitely notice more purposeful beats on atenelol, which I never ever felt before.. If I was in NSR I couldn't feel my heart at all.. now I sit here and can definitely feel it beating!I've also read that atenelol works by making the heart beat more purposefully.. at least I think it was the atenelol that I read about! Slow and steady.. and that's the way I like it.. my " active " heart rate, as indicated on an ECG this morning is a whopping 48! I tried to do a cardio workout on the elyptical trainer at the gym, and I couldn't get my rate over 110, so it automatically switched me to some other form of workout! I had to laugh at that!
