AF Meds
After an AF ablation had a pm fitted due to sluggish feeling. Have since been prescribed Edoxaban, Bisoprolol and Candesartan. I had issues with breathless and tight chest plus Lactic acid build up in hips, so they prescribed Amlodipine and Nicorandil thinking it must be Angina but i feel as bad

Microvessel angina or vasospastic disease
I had migraines for most of my adult life. They became a daily problem for me. In November of 2012 I started having heart pain which caused a heart attack and was misdiagnosed as having a classisc heart attack and was put on Beta blockers which exaserbated the problem. At the same time I was diagnosed

monitoring BP at home and it just gets higher and higher. I’m in such an anxious state now it seems pointless doing it? Anyone else?
Been on Candesartan and Amlodipine for over a year. Had a few dizzy spells so saw gp wondered if it was the Amlodipine but now think I’ve got anxiety about having high BP. Checking it at home is just making both worse!

Fed Up.
Hello again, very long time, no see. I will freely admit that a huge part of my absence has been pure denial. As 2024 begins, I realise I have been a prisoner of my health problems since late 2020, when it all really kicked off probably due in no small way to our good friend Covid, both mentally and

enzalutamide and amlodipine
"enzalutamide will decrease the effect of amlodipine by affecting hepatic/intestinal CYP3A4 metabolism "....i was prescribed amlodipine and noticed it was not effective in lowering blood pressure so this must be the reason. Would a different calcium channel blocker work?

Colonoscopy and pred
I'm having a colonoscopy on Thursday. I have been told to leave off the 2mg pred I take early morning until after the procedure (the appointment is for 10.30am). The same for all my other meds except amlodipine which I can still take. I think their reasoning is that I'm not allowed to eat anything after

Insomnia and Felodipine ?
Hi everyoneI have been on Felodipine for several weeks now after trying many other drugs for BP. While I feel a lot better on these drugs my existing insomnia is now off the scale!. I am now averaging 3 or 4 hours a night and over the counter sleeping pills aren't helping much. My GP says she has ran

Angina?
20th October I started to feel unwell after a week of stresses. Then the day after thought I had a bit of a bug from my granddaughter. By the next day I felt I had indigestion that seemed to come on as soon as I began to eat? Monday to wednesday bouts of pain in chest through to the back, neck, jaw

Amlodipine and Atorvastatin in One
Hello everyone, I am wondering if anyone with liver issues has taken the two meds together? Also know as Norvasc and Lipitor, and both are combined into one pill called Caduet. My Dr prescribed it as a precaution since I have a slightly higher blood pressure and cholesterol than desired for my age

High BP, abdominal pain and sickness and UTI
I initially had bouts of anaemia and tiredness throughout the early 2000s and was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism around 2010. I was told that my excess weight would drop off me after being prescribed Levothyroxine. That didn't happen but I did get side effects and symptoms of an underactive thyroid

Update on blood pressure medication.
My GP changed my blood pressure medication to Amlodipine last week and asked me to record my blood pressure twice a day for a week.I only lasted three days on the Amlodipine. Side effects for me were breathlessness, feeling nauseous and feeling totally drained. I was really hoping the amlodipine would
