Hi well come to HCM
If your B.P. is stable you can reduce the heart rate to around 6o by increasig the
dose of Metoptolol by another 25mg. and try curtail your Drink to not more than
two pags. Althou even with lower heart rate one can get palpitation because it
is a subjective feeling and donot keep any anxity, anxity it self can gove you palpita
tion. Everybody can listion ther heart beat if try to listion.So just try to divert your
mind
Thanks and good luck
