Is it OK to increase propranolol?

Posted by Deneb on May 31, 2010, at 21:40:04

My pdoc won't increase my propranolol until she gets my EKG, heart rate and blood pressure.

I just got the EKG today so I don't know about the results, but I did go to the pharmacy to get my blood pressure and heart rate.

It seems my blood pressure is on the lower side of normal. My systolic readings go from a high of 112 to a low of 91, average is 103.5.

My diastolic readings go from a high of 73 to a low of 58, average is 66.6.

My heart rate goes from a high of 93 to a low of 61. Average is 77.

Based on this information, is my pdoc likely to increase my propranolol?

I read that propranolol doesn't lower already low blood pressure, so I don't see what the big deal is.
