: You need a thorough cardiac evaluation if you have not. If cardiac test such as EKG and Holter have been done and propranolol was prescribed by cardiologist, it is time for a reevaluation. Good luck.

Make certain you are eating a healthy amount of potassium. Say 4,700 mg/d. You can track with the app Cronometer.
