So, I don’t know if anyone here has experience in this.. but I’ve been on metoprolol for years because of a genetic super high heart rate..dad, sister, aunts, grandma..we all have it..its well above a hundred resting.
The metoprolol keeps me well below a hundred and essentially makes me normal. But my wife who is a heart surgeon feels I should switch to propanolol.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Am I gaining anything?
She wants me to switch for 2 reasons.
1) she says I’ve been on metoprolol for a long time and she says patients do better on the propanolol (whatever that means)
2) she saw me completely snap on someone at work the other day and said it was pretty obvious that I needed the calming aspect of propanolol and doesn’t think the metoprolol is working for me the best it could.
