Propranolol gave me cognitive issues but I have to stay on it for my migraines. I'm on 120mg a day Xr. I didn't gain any weight with it but I'm too skinny anyways. I have noticed the anti anxiety effect wore of very quick for me but it did help my tremors. It seems relatively side effect free now that I've been on it for so long. I did rebel for a while and stop taking it when depressed and noticed I had more energy and focus. Glad to see you got off it successfully with no problems. I wish you the best of luck with your quest to find the right combo of medication.
