Can heart meds throw off your gains?

My cycles throw my BP, pulse rate & cholesterol off. My doc has me on meds Lipator, Crestor & a Beta Blocker. I'm really tired & dizzy. I drag azz thru training because of the fatigue & seen hardly any gains. My gear is good does anyone else go thru this w/ heart meds?

I have not used those meds but I would tell the doc about the way you are feeling he may need to make some ajustments to your dosages

I take BP meds. Been taking them for a few years. First, the body likes high
blood pressure so when it is low you feel a little dizzy especially when you
get up. I started HGH a year ago and only have to take half what I used to
take. Today on treadmill for half hour pulse only went to 110. My heart is
healed. I have more energy in morning so thats when I do my training.
Hang in there, do your cardio and some resistance, watch your diet and
don't drink. Good luck. PM me anytime.
