Fainting and shakes
Hi, I am new to posting but have been reading for some time. I was diagnosed with afib in 2021 and also had a stroke caused by a brain bleed. I am now in PAF which kicks in every 2 weeks or so, lasting a few hours. When this happens I usually have a "funny turn" , feel a bit faint for a few seconds

Blood pressure low side?
It's been 4 months since HA, and I feel good. Apart from the light headed feeling I get. BP readings around 105-118/ 65-75 regions. I spoke to my doctor , whilst he said the BP where fine, they could be episodes where I'm bordering on the low side which may be causing the light headed, quesy moments.

Facial swelling
Had Bypass 8 yearsago after heart attack and was put on ramipril amongst other drugs. After 8 years suddenly developed facial swelling arund lips and tongue. Taken off Ramipril and placed on Losartan. Any body else had problems with ramipril causing swellings. Does it get better after switching meds.

Lansoprazole irregular heartbeat
I have discovered sometimes I have an irregular heartbeat due to buying a new blood pressure monitor which flags it up.Due to supplies at the chemist running out I couldn't take Lansoprazole in the morning so took around 10pm along with the atorvastatin and Ramipril. Had no problems all day then after

Stopping Bisoprolol & ramipril
Long story short! I’ve been on 2.5 of each now for over two years & im over 18months clear in sinus rhythm after a successful ablation in feb 22 I’ve recently had an eco which shows heart in full health, I’ve been through the genetics route which concluded no heart disease or family history to worry

Candesartan or Losartan any difference in side effects
on a separate post. explained am waiting for appointment re brightred flushed feet on 10mg Amlodipine. Effective reduction BP but obviously too high a dosage for me. But had 5mg and not enough. Ramipril gives me a cough. So possibly will be reduced back to 5mg Amlodipine and given Candesartan or

Amlodipine flushing

post heart attack and stent insertion
my partner had heart attack and stent inserted at the end of January. Nothing but trouble since in that it seems the medication has some effect in constant dizzy spells and light heads, so extreme that he cannot leave the house and isn't eating as much etc. He has been taken off ramipril altogether.

In pain all the time
I recently went into hospital with buring chest sensation that went into neck, face back and arms. My ECG was the same as 2019. My bloods was showing I'd had a heart attack. In the IC ward, Dr told me he thinks its angina so sent me to the cardiology ward. Over my 5 days there had countless BP checks
