Hello , sorry for my late reply but today was out all day -:(
so dont panic i am sure is your mind playing up but if you are really worried just call your doctor and ask him to see tomorrow ..our minds cant play games on us when i first started the tablets i read all the side effects and believr me i experienced one and each of them ..so dont worry and call the doctor first thing tomorrow
let me know how you get on
take care fran

Today i have taken my first tablet of propranolol 40 mg , i coulnd t cope anymore and really wanted something to make the pain the fear the anxiety goaway-:( now i feel upset with myself as i think ishould have not taken medicationas i am worried theywont make me feel anything ..like they will make me numb ...-:(

fran i have recently started on these tablets too after suffering over 20 years of extreme anxiety, for me they have been a godsend and have taken away all those feelings of total dread and fear, i have had no side effects from them other than my feet feeling a little cold, i am able to carry on with all the normal thinga and they have'nt made me feel numb, please give them a fair try. best wishes and good luck x

Hello Sallyb

I have been reading on the forum and it seems that propranolol has been so good for some people but not as good for others..I am now taking half of a 40mg in the morning and I feel better ..I will give it a goal and talk to my Gp next week and see what it says..
I am very happy for you
Have a lovely day
Fran
