  1. Mine usually are do to something I ate. Not sure if it has to do with the nutrients or the acid it creates. Spinach salad for example makes my tremors worse. Junk food however makes me have none. Hard to eat good with this. Also I can't take any multi vitamins. Mine has also got better after I found out my iron was low and I stayed eating more red meat.

  2. Anyone had there co2 levels tested? Mine are always elevated. How can I bring them down? My doctor keeps asking if I have sleep apnea. I don't, just the heavy breathing hyperventilating stuff. I really think it would benefit me if my levels were lower. I would love to try a cpap or bipap but don't know how I could get one without a sleep study and I would put money on not having symptoms the night of the study.

  3. Propranolol made me feel just...blah. A boneless lump on the couch.

    Metoprolol xl (toprol) worked much better for me. I can't remember which doctor said this to me, but I'm pretty sure it was one of the more competent ones. When I mentioned that propranolol made me feel awful but metoprolol was ok, they said they weren't surprised at all. Something to do with propranolol being non-cardiospecific where metoprolol is, and how both drugs cross the BBB, but propranolol does it at a higher concentration.

    Thanks for this info!

  4. I have same issues. Everytime I burp my heart skips a beat. I have had similar feelings with low blood sugar. Something to look at. Also b vitamins dilate blood vessels further. Had some really bad attacks on vitamins. B6 is in that complex and if in the form of pyrodoxine is toxic to nerves. Your lucky you can still take ppi. I was on then for 8 years and they suddenly began increasing my nerve pain.

  5. There was mention of propranolol affecting the libido but no detail which way. I assume it was making it worse. I have had a different side affect of it, at least I think it's coming from the propranolol but may just come from being hyperadrenic. My libido has gone through the roof making me hypersexual. Maybe the difference is because I am male, not sure? Anyone else experience this?
