[|Human|] I am 60 yrs old male. wt 85 kg ht 5 7 living in a hill station. While walking upward I feel heavy breathing and choking of throat. Then after a short rest able to walk slowly. and then this process is repeated. No problem in walking in plain areas. Last week angiography was done which is normal. I have been prescribed tablet Revelol XL25. Pl advise what is trouble and is it the right medicine for my problem.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. Revelon XL 25 is metoprolol which is beta blocker. It will help you in this situation. Since your coronary angiography is normal, I don't think any cardiac disease is the cause for your current symptoms. So Beta blocker will not help you. In my opinion you should consult pulmonologist and get done PFT (pulmonary function test) to rule out bronchitis. As your symptoms like breathlessness on exertion is seen in Bronchitis. So better to rule out this. You may need inhaled bronchodilators and short course of antibiotics. So consult pulmonologist and discuss all these. Don't take Revlon XP 25. It will not help you.
