I was on slow release metropolol(beta blocker) felt like crap, rtightness in chest and upper body. Short of breath and would jump at a.pin drop. My flight instinct was severely compremised. Short tempered
Now I am back to normal since I weaned myself off!!
I did a lot of research and that beta blocker was # 1 on the list of worst beta blockers available!! Not a doctor but I know when my body is off.

I was put on that years ago and I had to stop due to similar issues. This is a bad drug.

What to do...I look up the side effects of each one, and they all have a list. I guess it's trial and error. I'm on metropolol for rate control on my afib...Only been on it about one year. Anyway, I'm grateful for what works. Any one having flashing in one eye?
