HIgh BP isnt my primary condition. Have been on BP medication for years now and it has been very stable at around 115/80. My diastolic years before had been on the high side. Am on CANDESARTAN HCTZ 16mg/12.5 mg as my BP a few months ago was actually quite low at 115/80 Jan last year. At one time it

update on pcp visit Thursday august 8, 2024. Labs drawn, calcium now 9.7 range 8.8-10.3. Headaches! BP 150/100, started on HCTZ 25mg, did not effect BP and I broke out in mild hives! I have my appointment with the surgeon this Wednesday the 14th, I sure hope I’m not going to be on a roller coaster! Pathology

I've had rls since I was in my teens. I'm now 66 years old. About 6-7 years ago, I was finally diagnosed with RLS, and given a medication that I can't recall the exact name of, but it was something like lebadopa carbadopa?? Anyway, that worked very well for me at first, but after a few months it would

Good morning everyone, I apologize in advance. I've let too much time go by without sharing needed updates. Due to the amazing feedback, I have received from this forum, MANY changes have been made in a short time and I'm truly in awe at the results so far. Last night I was reviewing and consolidating

Hi everyone, am new to HBPS site but hope that it will help me as a now take more seriously the need for better blood pressure control (thankfully not after a major incident! I just seemed to have wised-up!!). I posted the following in British Heart Foundation Community but on finding HBPS hope that

Hi everyone. I have recently been swapped from Amlodipine to Losartan (50mg) as A has caused palpitations and fast heart rate when prescribed at doses of 7.5mg and above. I was very happy to be off Amlodipine after 30 months of poor response and a GP who only wanted to prescribe/amend Amlodipine doses

Isn’t that an 80s song? Hmm. Having some issues from bp meds. I don’t know enough about them. I’m on Candesartan 32mg 1xDay; Metoprolol 200mg XL 2XDay; it’s STILL too high so the third drug is the one we are trying to replace. I did fine on Doxazosin 2mg, 1XDay, for 4 weeks. Then, we decided (my

Hi there, I’m 70 years old. My vision went cloudy, double and I couldn’t see earlier in the summer. It lasted for a few seconds. I took my BP and it was high. My GP prescribed 5mg amlododine but they happened a few more times so I’ve been referred to a neurologist and put on clopidogrel. My BP is still

Good morning all. After 30 months of unsuccessful treatment by Amlodipine and Ramipril and after a referral to a cardiologist for irregular heartbeats which seem to have been caused by higher doses of Amlodipine, I have been placed on my first new medication, Losartan 50mg. I take this at night simply

After 2 1/2yrs with GP adjusting just Amlodipine and Ramipril doses, I insisted on seeing a cardiologist as my faith in GP had waned totally. Today the cardiologist put my mind at a degree of rest in just 20 minutes after a long period of concern and anxiety. Having continually told GP that Amlodipine

hello When I had my heart attack in 2021, I was put on Ramipril among others. This gave me a dry hacking cough so I was switched to Losartan. But the cough is still there. I’ve had a chest x-ray; all ok. So I was wondering if any other meds are known to cause this. In addition to Losartan, I’m on aspirin

I noticed my BP was a high despite being on 10mg of bisoprolol (also on125mcg of digoxin). I'd previously taken perindopril but it gave me a nasty cough so when I was put on 10mg of Bisoprolol rather than the 1.25mg I was taking, I hoped my BP would be low enough without the perindopril but sadly it's

I have had PAF for more than 10 years but now my husband (73) has been told he has it and on the face of it, seems to be linked to the 2nd dose of Shingrix which he had last Thursday. I wondered if anyone else has experienced anything like this. Since the vaccination, he has had terrible abdominal

Hello. I have glaucoma in both eyes and have had several surgeries, next one due next week to remove scar tissue and revision of trabeculectomy bleb. I take Amlodipine for my blood pressure and read a few reviews regarding how it may affect glaucoma. I discussed this with my eye doctor, as I have

In 2019 I had Open Heart Surgery twice in the space of 11 days to fix an Ascending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm. Spent a month in the cardiac unit and that's when I first developed Afib. Before that I actually had Bradycardia, strangely enough. I was put on a high dose of Amiodarone for the Afib. Got discharged

Bit embarrassing so if anyone has an answer private message me. I was wondering if its ok yo use Anusol suppositories whilst taking heart meds? Im on Bisoprolol, prasugrel, Atorvastatin, Aspirin, Losartan potassium and Amlodipine. Thanks in advance!

Previously on 1.25mg of Bisoprolol and perindopril (can't remember the dose but not high). My blood pressure ticked along OK within acceptable levels (130/75) sometimes lower sometimes higher. I have atypical atrial flutter which had responded well to a cardioversion but because I have LBBB and grade

Hello all, I'm new here. Feeling pretty scared facing this CKD diagnosis. Watching myself slowly get worse is really hard. I was diagnosed with stage 2 CKD in 2020, which was only caught by taking a life insurance exam and it came back showing large amounts of protein in my urine. I had just had my annual
