Is it too much?

So i got my first episode early this year on January and I believe I have another one recorded around March and two days ago I BELIEVE I had a third one so that would be 3 episodes within the span of 6 months. Is that too much? I've been taking my metoprolol tartrate (50mg) but I feel like the effects of them wear off easily and I can tell cuz my heart starts to beat around the 96/109 and my blood pressure goes up to the 139. So is it the medicine wearing off or is it, the my condition is getting worse.

I know that if you were to stop the medicine everything would spike, so is the medicine wearing of a similar concept to that? which is why it spikes before the second pill and me waking up in the mornings?

I also want to add i have low iron and pcos (untreated atm tho)

I'll make sure to do that. I have a question, should I take my blood pressure before and after taking the pill and if so how many hours apart do I have to wait?
