First he had me on Nadalol to lower my BP to help with the headaches but my resting HR dropped to 43 bpm.

He switched to Z which I actually thought was the same type of med. I found out at the pharmacy one day it was a seizure med. I don't have seizures thank goodness.

I'll look into Nortriptyline a bit more. Thanks for the heads up on this.

When I'm in pain it seems I'll take anything they prescribe. I really need to pay more attention to what I am taking

I never remember my doctor going into too much detail on how the meds work, other than how Nadalol can lower bp.

At the moment I'm looking for a new doctor/neurologist. There are a few reasons for this but basically I don't think I have received good care for my concussion under his treatment.
