    Hi,

    Yes, I take propranolol.  I am on a very low dose and only take it when I feel or notice that I feel more anxious than usual.  It's been great - but as I said - use intermittently. I've had the same box for over a year.  Give it a go.  I have a friend who also takes it - much more frequently than I do - but it works for her too.  Takes away the tension I hold in my shoulders and relaxes my 'tense' stomach.  Just feel slightly calmer.

    My dosage is 10mg and I generally only take one tablet.  Stay positive too - it is hard, but definitely helps.

    Hope it works.
