Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Coreg is a beta blockers and they may cause the kind of adverse drug reaction that you are stating. The fact that your BP has also shot up states further that you are certainly not tolerating the doses any more.
Your cardiac medicine needs to be changed. Bring up this issue with your cardiac specialist in the next visit and he can help you with a change in medicine.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
