I am on propanalol 10 mg bd , is a beta blocker and have increased de dose to 20mg BD and is not helping at all,

My pulse today is 130 beats per minute and is regular inspite of taking this medication.

Thank you for answering me!

I would cut back, myself. When you are Hyper, your whole system is revved up. A lot of strenuous activity is not a good idea.

That's just my opinion. Are you on a beta blocker?
