Hi, im on day 1 of taking 5mg of propranolol. I know its a low dose, but im wondering if anyone else has any of these symptoms? its been almost a full day since taking 1 pill last evening. Im feeling pretty tired and kind of mentally numb (not feeling emotions, not laughing as much as funny things or feeling much of anything else). I started taking it because iv been having problems sleeping due to alot of anxiety. Last night was the first night i slept pretty good in a while. I went for a run this morning, only did 2.5 miles because i was getting worried about my heart not beating as fast as it should be so i stopped. Today we went to a movie and it was really funny, (TED) but i found it hard to really feel any of the emotion along with my laughter. I dont know if this has anything to do with it, but my feet also kept getting warm flashes for a couple hours. Is this normal? will it go away eventually? or should i just stop taking this pill? Appreciate any advice.

actually i just looked again, its 10 mg not 5. I feel better after eating something, although im still pretty tired. Not sure if its the pills or just not caught up on sleep yet. I do have another question. Is it safe to exercise on these pills? I usually do pretty exerting things like p90x and jogging. I would hope its safe to still do this while taking these pills.
