Diagnosis?: I assume the toprol (metoprolol) was started to control your high blood pressure, and would be unlikely to handle a problem which involves your hands and feet such as a peripheral nerve problem or even a peripheral vascular issue. Please contact your physician and investigate these additional issues.
