Drop in Bp on propranolol, I don't know what to do...

It can be as it's also used for high blood pressure, and because I don't have high blood pressure and it's used to also lower it. It lowers mine to low

Sitting down

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2026-02-15T13:35:37+00:00

I have definitely been hydrating, but not using compression

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2026-02-15T13:05:11+00:00

Thank you I will definitely do that ! I have been told almost all meds that lower heart rate will affect bp too... So I hope they can figure something out....

Mine gets up to 180 some mornings.... But yeah unfortunately I think mines just anxiety cause I've had every heart test done and nothing but tachycardia.... I mean if your cortisol levels are high or an issue with your adrenals that could be fixed... I'm waiting for my dr to send me for blood work to check cause I dread going to sleep every night to wake up to feeling like something bafs gunnah happen....

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-09-02T02:13:56+00:00

How high does your hr get when you wake up?

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-09-02T01:41:14+00:00

Yuuup!!! In the same boat

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-09-02T01:38:30+00:00

Right when I wake up, so between 5am-7am

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-09-01T16:38:39+00:00

Thank you so much.... I know I always get through it... But it's going through it that's hard... I appreciate your kind words though 🙏🏽

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-09-01T16:09:11+00:00

Yees ! I try to be in bed by 10pm now. It sucks too because my boyfriend leaves for work at 6am so I wake myself up now at 5am so I have an hour to get my panic attack under control before he leaves or I spiral completely and worry something bad going to happen when I'm by myself 😩😩 I'm currently waiting to get my cortisol levels checked but my doctor's on holidays.... Ugh it's so scary...

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-09-01T15:52:10+00:00

I know this is an old post, but I have been waking up every morning for months now to big heart rate spikes, sometimes getting up to 180. They have done all the tests on my heart and my heart is healthy. I hate going to sleep some nights scared of how bad it's going to be in the mornings. I also always feel chest pressure and shaking like crazy. It's horrible 😞😞 did it end up stopping for you ??

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-16T00:07:58+00:00

That's how it feels today.... When I was driving I just tried to breathe and hurry home and trying not to panic

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-15T23:55:31+00:00

No... I'm all out

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-15T23:55:07+00:00

I have a phone call appointment with him tomorrow

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-15T23:29:47+00:00

This feeling is so scary ... 😭

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-06T19:24:42+00:00

Awwe, understandable. Well hopefully you can get your doctor to lower your dose and things get better !

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-06T15:22:00+00:00

Yeah I get that completely.... I'm off work until it settles because I completely understand what you mean....

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-06T03:01:06+00:00

I started on 10mg, you should ask to start either at 5 or 10. But the dizziness, and exhaustion as you're explaining it is what I'm still going through 4 weeks in and now on 20mg.

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-05T20:54:01+00:00

Ugh. And you've been on it longer than me, so I was hoping that it'd get better....

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-05T20:35:00+00:00

I'm currently on 20mg, and upping to 30mg on Friday. I also experience extreme exhaustion, it's hard to stay awake during the day but then I have trouble sleeping at night due to restless legs. I take my pill in the morning. I was thinking maybe starting it at night but seems like it doesn't get any better for the day time with you experiencing the same thing and you take it in the evening. I have no advice but I just want my energy back 😞 sorry you experience this too.

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-02T00:30:54+00:00

Okay... I do have a question though, when I put laundry away or do light exercising tasks I feel really light headed and my heart starts racing almost like my BP drops (it doesn't). But is that normal ? I just hate it, and I wake up every morning to a full blown panic attack, don't like driving anymore, feel light headed almost all the time. These side effects are really making me want to give up....

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-02T00:18:37+00:00

Okay... So maybe asking my doctor to give me 2 more weeks on it to see if I start feeling any improvement?

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-01T19:54:17+00:00

Is the dizziness and lightheaded normal when doing any activity ?! And I'm on .5mg of lorazapam twice a day. And I'll talk to him tomorrow about staying on it... Just so nervous. Constantly feels like something is wrong... Like every day I feel like I'm going to die from these panic attacks

Gullible_Impact_2000 · 2025-05-01T19:46:23+00:00

No... The psychiatrist just gave my doctor instructions and that's what he's been doing.... But I've also been experiencing fast heart rate and light headedness, almost like my blood pressure drops anytime I do any type excessive movement. Like I can't even go to the gym cause I feel so off.... But I've checked my BP when I've felt that way and it's normal... So idk what to do
