Angina medication chronic neck and back pain.

[Ninaella]

Three month of this pain my medication is asprin arvostatin perindropril amlodipine clopideral bisoprolol and lansoprazole, doctor told me to stop the arvostatin but three weeks later I still have the pain and it is unpredictable could this be the bisoprolol as I haven't tried stopping it yet can anyone help its keeping me of work and it's hard to see doctor because of the vivid situation.

Hello and welcome to the forum! As you say the pain is unpredictable I do wonder if it is muscoskeletal in origin. It may be worth consulting a chiropractor. May I ask if you spend hours a day in front of a VDU as this can lead to issues with posture and pain. I had muscle pain from Simvastatin but they were constant but a change to Atorvastatin resolved the problem.

No this all started when I started the medication added to my perindropril and amlodipine.

It could be pure coincidence as typically aches due to say statins are constant rather than unpredictable. You need to get that appointment with your GP and keep an open mind.

Just a thought, have you ever had thyroid bloods done ?

[Ninaella in reply to ellj]

All started after having been diagnosed with angina and started medication for it.

[ellj in reply to Ninaella]

Perhaps more likely then but unfortunately having phone consultations and not face to face appointments can make things a bit harder to diagnose.

Hope you get some help

Thanks determined to get to the bottom of this.

I found that amlodipine did horrible things to me and was changed from that.

[Ninaella in reply to GrannyE]

Can't be perindropril or amlodipine been taking them for around 4 years previous but thanks.

Yea, If you have a beef with your pills get a phone appointment and explain to your Doctor what you relate here. Stopping tablets such as Bisoprolol & Amlodipine could make you seriously ill. Good Luck.
