Metoprolol chest tightness - anyone else?

I started taking 12.5mg metoprolol for NSVT and it makes my chest feel so tight. Has anyone else experienced this? Did it go away for you? Trying to avoid other beta blockers as my blood pressure is already quite low.

Has anyone been pregnant with MAD (mitral annular disjunction)?

I found out I have MAD (5.7mm) and am scared to have a second baby. I also have bileaflet mitral valve prolapse with mild-moderate regurgitation. I have no scarring but my cardiologist is recommending a beta blocker because I've had some PVC's. Anyone experience this? Did pregnancy make your MAD worse, or did you feel endangered in any way?

Another note, I also have tachycardia and had to have a blood transfusion when my first baby was born. Definitely don't want that again, and hoping a beta blocker would help with that risk in any subsequent pregnancies.
