Hi All. I Wanted To Know If Your Chronic Medication Also Makes You Feel Sick
A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭

My medication makes me feel extremely emotional and agitated at the same time. My stomach burns after I take my medication. It makes me feel horribly ill. My Cardiologist diagnosed me with stage 1 heart failure in 2021. He said exercise would be good for my heart, but I get out of breath extremely quickly. I clean a section of my house.

I'm In Cardiac Rehab And Almost Completed It. I Do 35 Minutes 3xa Week..
A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭

I plan to exercise at home the same as at cardiac rehab. When do I know I have enough exercise? I want to lose weight so I wanted to do a little more on Tuesdays and Thursdays too. I could start by only doing 15 minutes on Tuesday and Thursdays plus 35 on MWF. When do I know I'm overdoing it? I've had chf 9 years. I want to be strong but am concerned I'll wear myself out.

Just had a heart catherization two weeks ago. I do a day at a time, or even a hour at a time. Caffeine free tea has helped me so much. Remember to breathe! Best to you!
