A member asked:

I have m.s. and i want to build my muscles back, but my body gets over heated and my heart rate speeds up so fast i feel like blacking out. what todo?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Suggestions: The heart rate issue needs evaluation, as is not an ms issue, and may be associated with a different process. Might try a beta blocker is tachycardia is a problem. Might also exercise in a pool setting as may have far less adverse events.
