> I took propranalol for anxiety for a while. It was like a miracle for me -- I never knew how bad my anxiety was until the first dose of propranalol! It was just wonderful.

Yeah, I'm stuck by just how calm I feel after taking it. I guess normally I'm a bit keyed up or on edge. I worry about my BP spikes now, I just read that anxiety induced hypertension does damage. I'm kind of glad I have some propranolol now, even though I only have 9 pills. I'm not sure why my pdoc gives me so little, maybe she's afraid I will OD on them? I dunno, but I think you can take a lot before it harms you.

Thanks for letting me know about the dosage and sharing your experience with it.
