I have had 2 strokes, one while undergoing chemotherapy, (ovarian cancer, hysterectomy and chemo due to cyst burst) which had to be stopped after 2 sessions due to reactions from Pachtaxel, and Dexamethasone(steroids). Was recovering well when woke up with limited movement on right.
I have had high blood pressure for years, but not as high as readings now, over 200. I have tried Amlodipine which causes anxiety, chest pain, and palpitations. Adipine which was like going through chemotherapy. Rampril, confusion, flu symptoms, Losartan, caused huge anxiety, blood pressure rise. Lercandipine, one day caused anxiety, and on Doxazosin, where I have pins and needles in hands, unsteady walking, and bone cold all the time, blood pressure still very high.
I am allergic to over the counter meds, and only take paracetamol and ibrufen(although can’t take that at present). I am on Clopidogrel.
At present being monitored, and have spoken to pharmacist at surgery, and been told it’s going to be trial or error, and still taking the Doxazosin as it does not make me confused, but can’t go on with side effects much longer
Any suggestions?
