Also, how long did it take for you to see improvements in your symptoms? I'm still waiting for my blood pressure to stabilize. Has anyone else dealt with these issues? Any tips on managing the side effects would be appreciated. On a side note, my doctor mentioned that Metoprolol can affect my blood sugar levels. I'm not diabetic, but I'm still a bit concerned.

First, the medication has definitely helped with my chest pain, but I've also had some side effects like dizziness and fatigue. Are these normal? Also, I've been dealing with depression lately and I'm wondering if it's related to the medication. Anyone else experiencing this? I've also been worried about the severe side effects listed in the leaflet. Has anyone else had any of those? Finally, what's the best way to report side effects to the FDA? I want to make sure I'm doing everything right.
