Walt that's what the Beta Blocker does if taken properly. I take it more for AFib then I do BP. It keeps my PR low to help stop AFib.
Glad you got your dosage worked out. Have you ever thought about dividing your dosage up into 3 times a day? Stays in your system more evenly and your not overloading.
Which one you taking I'm on 100mgs of METOPROLOL SUCCINATE Extended-release Tablets
for fast heart and PVCs works for BP too.
The doc said one pill in morning but I ask him to do 2 50mgs twice a day , due to me waking at night with rapid pulse , Works good for me too
 
WeedHopper, what is your coffee intake like in the AM? I am only on second cup and I'm feeling like I'm wired to the max. Doc was wanting me to switch to decaf and I did for about half a coffee cans worth. I'm going to have Mrs. Monkey help me find my BP pills. All this reading about this stuff is making me jittery I guess.

I do Half Caff coffee only. It's not caffeine free but it's only 50% caffeine and it never bothers my heart. If I drink regular coffee it fks with me sometimes so I switched to half Caff. Try it you will like it.

I told my doc to shove the Metoprolol up his ***. That **** is way to strong for me. I couldn't hardly stand up on that ****. And my pulse rate was in the 40s and 50s at night.
Mine is Carvedilol ,, little white pills. They are 3.125
And I split the tiny fkers into half's and take a half pill 3 times a day. I never have to worry about the half life of the med because I have the same amount in my system constantly. When I was taking them twice a day it wasnt working like it should. He wanted me taking a full dose in the morning and then at night. That didn't work for me I was still having some AFib.That's not cool and the doctor could give two ***** when he gives you your meds and dosage. I know my body better then the doctor does because I live in it.
I never tell anyone not to take their meds just adjust your dosage according to your body.

When I was taking them twice a day it was kicking my ***. He wanted me taking a full dose in the morning and then at night. That didn't work for me. At night my PR would go into the lower 50s and sometimes into the 40s. That's not cool and the doctor could give two ***** when he gives you your meds and dosage.

I did a stint on beta blockers. I had a raised T level, "high side of normal" which kept me up a week straight and had me losing 3 lbs a day, no matter what I ate.
Beta blocker makes everything steady state, nice and even. You could have lit a bomb off and I wouldn't jump.

Another odd effect when you are really pushing, is just running out of gas! Normally as you push, your breathing, heart rate, etc ramp up. Beta blocker prevents this, so you just run out of gas and flop.

Remarkable what metabolism can do!

When my lungs plugged up last year, I made an appointment to see my doc. Nice thing about being me is that when you call him, you get in that day 'cause he knows yer half dead. It had been 4 years. I don't think he misses me too much. I guess I'm a "problem child" for doctors.
 
Hello Misfits I don't believe it. My picture will not upload to the site. I can't get into to it right now. It's got my blood boiling. Well, I can say that poor old Lemon isn't doing so good. Wish I could post pictures.

Getting ready to go to the hospital for my knee replacement tomorrow. The hospital hasn't call to set my time to go in. I'm nerves.
