HA sept 2020. Unable ti see cardiologist because of COVID. Decided to go private. I’ve had severe diaorrhea since my meds started and issues with feeling foggy headed. I wanted to see if meds could be improved. This Cardiologist must have misunderstood me because I was told to do one day on one day off Bisoprilol fir one week then nothing at all for two weeks.
My blood pressure rise to 186/87 something it has not done in 6 months. I didn’t feel anxious because I trusted his advice abd assumed I would be going back to see him after 2 weeks off tablets and would be starting something new. Not so when contacted by text ( as told my Cardiologist) he says I had wanted to come off Bisoprilol abd he wasn’t going to replace it.
It had been stamped on my brain by everyone before leaving hospital after 3 stents and mild heart failure that I had to take these pills religiously for ever . Why would I suggest I didn’t want to take them?
I have been left feeling absolutely let down. Yet again. The feelings you have of uncertainty after a HA are already enormous, then COVID intervening making it so hard to see anyone. I trusted going private would give me space to talk my problems over and iron out difficulties with the meds. It’s done nothing more than make me retreat into my corner fir having the audacity to challenge what I have been given.
So it seems I will just have to trot along with the standard pills being upped no matter how foggy headed I feel.
