Drug Combinations
Have been taking Diltiazem and flecainide for many years which seems to have kept AF under control. However after recent bad experience with Losartan for BP I have been prescribed Amlodipine. Does anyone out there have experience of two Calcium Blockers?

Does this sound like a lupus flare?
Hello, Community. I recognise that my question may seem absurd, on this forum but my diagnosis of lupus, made in 2011 or so, was on the basis of blood tests and a persistent hip joint inflammation. I was prescribed Hydroxychloroqine and Losartan (for my life-long Raynaud's) and carried on with my life

Risks Associated w/Too Many Medications
I'm currently taking 8 medications for which there are no listed drug interaction effects, but I can't help but wonder whether doctors and pharmacists actually know what happens when so many medications are taken. Currently, I'm on: Carbodopa/Levidopa Rasigiline Nurianz Bupropion Gabapentin Quetiapine

Heart rate has lowered..?
Hi guys. I've been on a combo of blood pressure drugs for a few years now. I've recently lost weight and I'm walking and exercising more. My heart rate has started to slow down to low 50s resting where it wad 60s before. Im getting a bit worried. Could it be that one of the tablets is doing it? I'm

Irregular heartrate
I had Open Heart Surgery twice in April 2019 to repair a Thoracic Ascending Aortic Aneurysm. Was in a months in total. After surgery I was in a month with infections and various bouts of AFIB. I was initially on Amiodarone. 3 weeks later I had other bouts of Afib brought on by Pneumonia and Sepsis.

Treatments for Erythromelalgia
Hello, Community. I have Lupus, severe Raynaud's and a long history of secondary erythromelalgia of my feet. It has got steadily worse over the last few years and the persistent effects are now deemed to be ischaemia reperfusion injury. It is much worse when the weather is hot or I have been walking

Depression /low mood and anxiety with felodipine and intolerance to bp meds.
Hi, I'm wondering how many of you have had depression or low mood on felodipine? I've been taking it for 3 months now and have definitely noticed a big dip in my moods. I'm a lot more anxious too. It's on the list of rare side effects but I wonder if it's more common than that. I've tried many meds

Right sided pain.
A strange one I had OHS 2 years ago for a Thoracic Ascending Aortic Aneurysm at the root. Had AFIB and Tachycardia in the following months. But no real issues since on the heart side. Have spent the last 2 weekend in hospital after a Cranial CSF Leak repair. Last Saturday night in hospital I developed

Shocking letter from cardiology
I’ve just had a shocking letter from the cardiology department of my local hospital which has really shocked and upset me. It was from a telephone conversation I had with them some weeks ago having been transferred to their care after having a mitral valve replacement on the 7th of October 2020 At Barts

Heart Arrhythmia
Hello all. I have a question that maybe someone can answer. Most of the time my heart beats fine. Steady and around 60 BPM. There are times though that it will out of the blue beat 8 or 10 times in a row fast. Just speeds up for no reason and then will go back to normal slow rhythm. Does anyone know

How to get rid of persistent dizziness and vertigo when taking Lisinopril, Ramipril or Losartan?
