Hi,
I have had bad hot flushes for the past 6 years (getting progressively worse) since having my son. I have diarrhoea every morning for the past 4-5 years. I have felt nausea at certain times but in the past year that has become every single day. Every thing makes me feel sick. All day every day! I'm also dizzy and exhausted. Because of this I went to the doctors, I'd previously had all kinds of checks for food allergies that were negative, I'm not anaemic, diabetic and I have no thyroid problem. They found I had a resting heart rate of 96 bpm coupled with low blood preasure and high colesterole despite being 29, 4ft 11 and 8st. I exercise regularly and don't drink or smoke. I had an ECG and there was no heart problem. They have prescribed me 40mg propranolol daily to combat nausea but this aggravates my reynauds to the point of numb arms and legs waking me up at night. Also, in the month I've been taking it (cutting it in half and only taking 20mg a day as it made me feel too wierd) I've had 2 migraines so severe I was sick, despite not suffering from them normally. I'm not stressed or anxious, and that is not why I've been prescribed it, iv been given propranolol simply to alleviate some symptoms whilst they are at a loss for the cause. Help!
