Beta Blockers

I have taken 1/2 of a tablet of medication for 2 days now and my hopes are up. I'm feeling well, although still nervous about side effects or dropping dead of a heart attack.

Beta blockers work by slowing down your heart beat. This is counter- intuitive as that is the reason I faint in the first place. The reasoning is, if your heart doesn't speed up it can't come crashing down.

I'm hoping to get back to my normal self. Time will tell. I'll keep you posted.
