I have been taking 40mg of propranolol for 28 days now and in the bigger picture feel so much better! Ikea, asda and the Dartford tunnel and a few odd things make me wobble but that's my lack of control thingy coming in.
My question for anxiety sufferers past and present - am I safe to exercise daily? Seems stoopid q but the meds play with your heart and I don't wanna exercise and cause any probs
I am back at the gps on Monday but decided I've put on far too much weight and have enthusiasm but this is holding me back.
I have completed and been accepted for cbt and am on a waiting list.

Oh and Claire did you go - please do

i am not sure about the medical issues whilst on pills but just wanna say well done to you for taking the steps in the right direction can only imagine how hard it was to get to this point x x

I still have to make an appointment.. i will do it! x

Thanks Michelle, as Claire knows it is horrid.. It eats into my life - or was. Don't get me wrong there are times like Ikea I felt really unwell, Hayden was showing off, James had a cob on cos he wanted to mosey round.. As soon as I saw the exit I was fine I know its in my head but its hard to fight.
I have been taking meds for almost a month and 90% of the time feel fine, still slightly wobbly, if alone or if I think about it.
Please go Claire, I know I keep on but it has totally made me feel so much better I can walk round a small supermarket, wait at school for the boys without stressing. Now I'm back in the docs in the morning, I remember last time sitting wobbling my knee to keep my circulation going, my head pounding panicking how many people were ahead of me.. I'll see how I am sitting in their tomorrow morning. I'm not stressed tonight, whereby last time I was crapping it by now....
