Beta-blockers, especially propranolol, can they actually cause anxiety/palpitations?

Hi,
I've been experiencing morning palpitations/ anxiety and I've explored every possible cause (anti-d's and anti-p's not working) except for my dose of Propranolol (20mg morning and night). Has anyone either experienced or knowledge of this med CAUSING anxiety etc??
 
Propranolol is designed exactly for that purpose ie relieve symptoms of anxiety and slow your heart rate, see your Dr you may need to increase your dose.
 
HI I am also on Propranolol. for migraines. sometimes i get little heart flutters out of nowhere. i dont know if its the propranolol or just my nerves. i had heart palpitations in the past due to over stim use mabe i have permanent damage. i dont know. but these pills DO make me feel funny from time to time.

Also i have a question about beta blockers and rcs... i know they block the epinephrine receptors. but is it safe to myx them with things like phenethylamines, like 5-mapb oh a-php. or what about noids. can anyone give me some info on this
thanks
