Advice Please
I was diagnosed with AFib in July after going to the GP with concerns about feeling breathless, tiring easily and swollen ankles. I had a TIA three years ago. I was taken off clopidogrel and amlodipine and prescribed Bisoprolol and Rivaroxaban. The dose of Bisoprolol was increased from 3.75mg to 10mg

Angina
Hi, I have angina since I had my heart attack about 18 months ago. This heat is making the angina worse and I also have insomnia. I had a hospital report from my cardiac MRI and will need further hospital tests in the next few weeks. I cope with GTN spray and Amlodipine as the heat affects my blood

Amlodipine for angina
My husband, who is nearly 72, had a heart attack in April last year caused by high cholesterol. He had a stent fitted, told that his heart had no damage and was put on Bisoprolol 2.5mg twice a day, ramipril 2.5mg twice a day (now changed to Losartan 50mg once a day), ticagrelor for a year and aspirin

Insomnia from amlodipine
I experienced severe insomnia on amlodipine, and my doctor took me off it. (Trying something else with a shorter half life.) But now I am wondering whether the insomnia might have subsided. It is so hard to find any detailed information on side effects. Did anyone have insomnia on amlodipine that resolved

BP with abiraterone + prednisone, eplerenone, dexamethasone
I have been on Lupron and abiraterone with (initially) prednisone for 4.5 years, which has maintained my PSA at <0.1 since 111 at diagnosis. I have all the usual side effects. One that doesn't bother me day-to-day, but definitely concerns me, is hypertension. Before PCa, I had moderately high BP, which

Update on Omlesartan/Candesartan debacle!
hi folks, I thought I would give you a quick update. I started on the Olmesartan (low dose) on Monday morning. By this morning my resting heart rate had fallen into my boots and I could barely function. Over 48 hours it dropped from the usual 74 bpm to 57 bpm. I felt awful. I also started with a runny

Amlodipine /tinnitus
i have been on amlodipine 5 mg for a year for blood pressure, since then i seem to have developed tinnitus, my question is could it be linked to my prescription? or is just a case of getting old and the two are not linked at all, has anyone else experienced this? would it be worth stopping my amlodipine

Atorvastatin
Ive found that taken at night my dose causes morning headaches which are not alchol related!! Taken in the morning with other meds causes no adverse effects, well at least nothing noticable. I also take steroids & inhaler for copd and Amlodipine for raised BP along with Omeprazole for gut protection

First time Ruxolitinib and what to make note of, from Vietnam - a case of interest/study
I am writing on behalf of my mother who was diagnosed with PV back in 2002. The symptoms started with her in 2001 but it took over 1 year for my mother to get to the right hospital, a specialized Hematologic hospital of the Ho Chi Minh City and she was put on HU since then, until recently, as a BMB showed
