I take Cogentin now.

About 7 years ago my pdoc sent me IP and I was very anxious so he decided to add propranolol to the mix at a high and frequent dose. I was standing at the nurses desk a couple of days later when I suddenly fainted. Pysch nurse freaked out. She took my vitals and my blood pressure was 80/40 - which is probably higher than it was when I went down. I was supposed to be discharged that day and the nurse kept begging me to stay one more night so they could keep and eye on me. There was no way I was going to stay.

Pdoc has never mentioned propranolol again - now he gives a benzo on rare occasions.
