Confused from Reading too Much about Carbimazole 5mg
Hi I'm new to all this. Before now I have never worried about what medication I have been prescribed, but then my doctor told me the side effects and I felt I needed to find out more before taking it, as it made me nervous. My TPO is 50 kU/L (0-5.6), TSH .05 miu/L (0-7), T3 5 pmol/L (1-9) and T4 12.4

Ramipril and amlodipine?
My BP has been high since an episode of fast AF in August 2019. I had a cardioversion in Sept 2019 and PVI ablation Jan 2020. I was originally on losartan but got horrendous side effects so GP changed me to Ramipril 2.5 mg. BP remained high so dose increased to 5mg about 2 months ago. BP still high

Can I stop taking amlodipine 2.5 mg without a dr?
I've been on these meds since May 2020 and have not even been seen by a doctor yet. I am having breathing issues,I know use an inhaler daily, pain in neck and back. I had neck surgery in 2019 and had no issues until a month ago when out of nowhere I kept getting pain and tingling in my neck and back.

Amlodipine side effects
I have been taking amlodipine 5mg for around 6 months with no major side effects. Doctor increased to 10mg last week as BP had crept up. Side effects have been unbearable with a constant headache and extreme sleepiness! I’m like a walking zombie! So for the last 3 days have reverted back to my 5mg

Beta blockers-how long to stay on them?
I developed tachycardia 18 months ago after an immunosuppressant treatment . A GP put me on a beta blocker. A month later another GP took me off the beta blocker and I got bad withdrawal symptoms- palpitations, high heart rate etc. I saw a cardiologist privately who changed the beta blocker from propanalol

Amlodipine side effects
Just joined this forum and it has been really helpful. GP prescribed Amlodipine 5mg back in Dec'19 for hypertension. Was not certain about taking this, asked about side effects and was told, maybe swollen ankles. That has been the least of it. After taking for 2 weeks, was in absolute with muscle

Amlodipine
When you stop Amlodipine how long does it stay in your system. I have read that it can take 12 days is this correct. Pharmacist said it has a half life 3/4 days so confused.

Weird feeling 3 weeks after getting stents.
Hi! I am a 53 year old male. I am very active and play Table Tennis for couple of hours almost every day. I got a nuclear stress test that showed abnormality. This prompted my cardiologist for me to get a catheterization done. During Catheterization the doctor discovered 99.9% was blocked and the radial

help needed with a deep hacking phlegmy cough.
I have had this deep hacking cough for 18 months. In all seasons, indoors and outdoors. Often I will bring up thick phlegm. It sounds like a smokers cough and I do not smoke and live in a smoke-free environment. I also wheeze. I have Asthma so my RT increased my Fluticasone puffer to 2 puffs 2 x
