Re: Clive (# 66)
I am weening off propranolol 10mg every month. My dry eye is worse. I have problems with my distance vision (almost double vision) and increasesed eye pain. Hard to explain it. This happened when I started this medication as well. I needed it for migraines due to a post concussion. I asked my pharmacist today and she said it's not from the meds, to talk to my doctor.
She is wrong. This is the 2nd time weening off of it (tried 6 months ago) and the same thing happened. It's real and it hurts.

I am trying to come off propranolol and venlafaxine after being on both for 30 years.
I am finding it really hard to withdraw from the propranolol I am
currently taking one 40mg tablet every other day, but am suffering from dizziness and nausea. Can anyone advise me how to proceed
Propranolol 80mg slow release capsules gave me very bad diarrhoea. The stomach pains may be a warning of the runs!
Stupid as I'm gonna sound, can u give me a bit of an idea about your low carb diet. Thx again for your encouragement
Nana, thank you so much! I am, I feel, good care and am trying to educate my self as much as possible.

I have taken Propranolol for over twenty years for essential tremors. The dose has been up and down over the years, 80mg has been the most recent one two times a day. This doesn't seem to help much with my tremors. I have to work. I am now 77 years old and cannot write or speak clearly, which I must use both on the job. My heart has stopped three times and have had to be brought back, that is why the up and down doses. A week ago was the last time for my heart to stop; my step son gave me CPR and brought me back, I was taken to Er, no heart checked except for the ekg and was sent home to see my primary physician. She was disturbed that they have never checked my neurological condition or heart over the years so that is what she is starting to do now. I am off of the Propranolol now as this she believes lowers my blood pressure and stops my heart. It has been now a week since I have taken a pill, my tremors are back big time, so we are now starting me on the CBD and that has helped some, but too soon to tell what it will do for the essential tremors. I have a family history of this condition, my mother had only the head shaking, grandmother was both head and hands which I have. It is embarrassing to try to go out to eat, have to have my head in my plate to reach my mouth at times with the shaking so hard. I have had no strange side-effect by the sudden stopping of the drug. I was told not to stop too quickly, but I did and started the CBD. You are welcome to write me back.

I went off 60 mg er/day inderal 4 days ago and was put on nortriptyline to treat my migraines. Since the i have had the worst migraines I have ever had. My dr told me to just completely stop the inderal. Could this be the cause of my excruciating migraine?
