After a heart attack last Tuesday, the 24th. I am on two medication
for the first time in my life. One is called Metoprolol (Tartrate). I
did some research on it and found out, some concert musicians, and
people who do public speaking, take the stuff to calm their nerves. A
half of a pill, 25mg knocks me on my ass. Have any of you ever heard
of anyone taking suck a drug before a performance?

Paul, I'm glad your still with us! That must have been a horrific
experiance. Perhaps some red wine for the old ticker? I have no
experiance with drugs like those.

My experience is tinitus, bradychardia, insomnia, nightmares. The medication
was prescribed for borderline hypertension. Actually it was prescribed for
high normal. I am now taking half what I was and intend to cut that in half
the next time I see my doctor.
