I'm taking Metoprolol 25mg twice daily. The heart doctor told me that this is the right med for me to slow down my heart rate and everythings fine....pfft
im on beta blockers also, and i can continually feel my heart beat, too. i also had to stay in the hospital because of a fast heart rate, but they diagnosed me with atrial fibrillation. i think the constant awareness of my heartbeat makes me think that it's pounding, and is a side effect of the beta blockers. i started off on metoprolol, but am now on bystolic, which has a lot less nasty side effects for me.
Which beta blocker are you on? Mine helps went my heart rate gets fast.
