Just regretted ever starting it. I was advised to take it because of anxiety. Now my heart rate is a new set of anxiety for me, body shaking, headache and pains. Meanwhile I just took it for only 5 days and now withdrawing too is a problem. I will not take it again

It could be the dosage is too high. How did it affect your heart rate? Too low or too high?

I am withdrawing from atenolol after two failed attempts to withdrawal from bisoprolol as the withdrawal symptoms were so awful . Atenolol has been easier so far am on the last lap on 8th of a tablet . It sounds like you are having a withdrawal reaction to coming off the propranolol to me. If you ve just stopped then high blood pressure heart rate arrhythmia and shaking are all very likely withdrawal symptoms. I have left a month between drops this time to reduce the severity of the symptoms. I hope you are ok
