Has anyone experienced weight gain, especially around their middle, from propranolol? Or any cognitive effects, like cognitive dulling? Or confusion or forgetfulness? Or poor recall of words?

Let me know! I'm trying to figure out which meds to trim off my list and I know propranolol has been known to cause weight gain, and I'm already obese (i've lost 37 lbs though through diet exercise and metformin) and feel like I don't need 3 medications for anxiety. That's just overkill. The only thing propranolol helped with was my driving anxiety and I feel like I've improved on that in the last year.
