So after the worst night ever with constant adrenaline rushes for over 12 hours and being convinced I was dying I finally agreed to give 10mg of propranolol a try. I didn’t take it a few months ago when I was first prescribed as I was too scared but I was at the end of my tether last night.

I took one 10mg pill this morning and it did seem to dampen the adrenaline down a bit, but not completely. I can still hear the palps in my head but I feel a bit calmer.

I’m supposed to take 3 x daily, but I read it can be dangerous if you stop it. I haven’t taken any further doses yet until I decide if I like it, but should I just carry on taking it until my next gp appt in two weeks?

Help! Medication scares me.
