Re: “I'll see how annoyed the doc is that I took it upon myself to cut the metoprolol dose in half.”Far from being annoyed, he said "I don't think you should be taking it at all." And that was that! No more metoprolol for me and my heart rate should go back to normal!

He also took me off of niacin. If you recall, that was something I had started taking on my own based partly on the fact that my mother had been given it for her heart condition. Niacin is supposed to be very good at improving blood flow.

The doctor said, "Well, that's what they used to think. Now they are seeing more and more problems with niacin, one of which is that it interferes with many medications. You are better off not being on it."

After that, since my heart is doing fine, we chatted about vaccines, masks, and the virus. He hates his mask and agrees with me that masks are not doing very much good. He disagrees with me about the vaccines. We talked quite a bit about that. When he said he didn't need to see me for another year, I said "Great! We'll find out in a year which of us has changed his mind about mRNA vaccines." The thing is, he's an extremely smart guy. I'm not so foolish as to assume that I'm the one who's right.
