06 Feb 2014 Bystolic does a good job of controlling my blood pressure while undesirable side effects are kept to a minimum.

26 Mar 2013 Since starting Bystolic I have fleeting thoughts that I am doing an activity or looking for something that has already happened. I find myself staring at the computer screen and can't remember what I sat down to do. I will stop taking this medication. I 've become useless at home and inefficient at work. My feet and hands hurt much worse since starting this medication and my blood pressure is pretty much untouched.
