How did you wean off Metoprolol?

Hi.

I've been off of metoprolol Tartrate 25mg for ten days because of the long list of side effects that were effecting me including destroying my GI tract. Still feeling some side effects including tachycardia heart rate keeps bouncing between low 50s to mid 80s. I've lost 22 pounds in the past eight weeks due to the stomach problems and still getting the palpitations. Constantly feeling cold and have chills. I will continue to monitor. If it doesn't level out I will contact cardiologist. I hate this drug

I had similar things happen to me after about 3 months of taking Metoprolol tartrate. I lost around 30 pounds in a couple of months from the gastro problems and I had chills while taking it. I have been told to stop taking it now and am worried about side effects. I only take 25 mg split up into 2 doses. I was wondering how you are doing now and how long it took you to feel better after you stopped taking it. Thanks for any input.
