Af and coughs
Had a niggly cough for several months and then diagnosed with Af. Now on beta blockers, anti coagulants, gastro tablets and amlodipine. Now have a stinking cold and cough is really annoying. My question is, does af cause the cough or do the meds affect the cough. I do not feel breathless and I can walk

A Good Day's Night
AFib status: Permanent for at least the past two years. 75 years old. Medication: Apixaban, 5mg Bisoprolol, Amlodipine, 5mg Ramipril, Atorvastatin. No offers by my doctor of a cardioversion or an ablation. I have been fairly stable on those meds since it was confirmed that I had Permanent Afib.

anyone heard of long p wave
had my pacemaker in on Friday. Still in hospital with New med trial is bisoprolol, flecainide, amlodipine, xarelto. They say the flecainide is causing long p wave- I was taken off of flecainide in 2019 , but I thought it was for long qt wave. On this regiment of meds, no more spiking of heart

coronary artery spasm
Hi. I have been told that I most probably have coronary artery spasm as get chest pain if I rush especially if it’s cold and I’ve just eaten or had a drink of something. It started in 2021 and I had loads of tests and they said my arteries were clear. They put me on Atorvastatin and low dose aspirin.

Thyroxine and amlodipine
I started taking amlodipine for high blood pressure a few weeks ago. I have been taking it at night, well away from my thyroxine which I take an hour before breakfast every day. The practice nurse said I would be fine to take the two medications together, but I wondered if any of the thyroid experts

Doxazosin
It’s almost 2 years since my heart attack and triple bypass. I’m being started today on Doxazosin 1mg as my BP is high. I can only tolerate Amlodipine 5mg because of swelling ankles and legs and Ezetamide made my pulse go crazy. This had been ongoing for about a year. I take max dose of Ramipril.

Hypertension
I have lymphoedema in my left leg and wear full length compression. My GP wants to prescribe Amlodipine for mild hypertension. I note that a side effect is swollen ankles and this does concern me greatly. Any advice please. Thank you
