Valsartan and erection
I recently started valsartan for bp. I take it at bedtime and wake up early AM with an erection. Has anyone else had this happen? From what I’ve heard it’s usually the opposite.

Valsartan and cancer
Does the BP med Valsartan still contain carcinogen? I have recently started taking without knowing about it's recall until I read about it online. I am a ten year survivor of cancer and have genetic risk for it.

harmful meds
Anybody have experience taking prescription meds for whatever reason, only later to discover that they are destroying your kidneys. For me hydrochlorothiazide, hctz and lopid gemfibrozol anti elevated triglycerides seem to be two drugs with potential for damaging kidneys.??

Irratic blood pressure
Hi there I am new to the chat. I am still having irratic blood pressure readings after being on high doses of Valsartan. My blood pressure will be stable for a while and then shoot back up again. When it is stable I take half f if the dose. I wonder if that is the problem. Please advise

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

Blood pressure meds
What meds to reduce blood pressure are safe for the liver? I was prescribed Valsartan (Diovan), but information online indicates it might be dangerous for the liver. Can anyone give me examples of other meds that can be used so I can talk to my GP about them?

Not seeing dramatic improvement in numbers
I’ve been on blood pressure meds now for almost 3 weeks. During that time my meds have been tweaked 3x. Started off on Losartan 50mg, then Losartan 100mg and now Losartan 100mg HCTZ (a combo pill that includes a diuretic). I’m pleased that I don’t feel any side effects yet (hopefully won’t), and there

Amplodipine
Hello, First time I have used any Forum. Just started on Hormone injections for Prostate Cancer but they appear to be having an effect on raising my blood pressure to an unacceptable level. Doc has just given me Amplodipine tabs to take with my current meds Valsartan, Atorvastatin and Clopidogrel. Will

Valsartan successfully treated my blood pressure with bendroflumethizide but valsartan was stopped and I was given candesartan 8mg then 10mg
I developed high blood pressure and palpatations. I wore a 24hr BP machine and the called me as the readings were average 220/91. I’ve started taking 16mg Candesartan this morning in hope it helps but I’m really worried now and the palpitations are uncomfortable

Borderline Small Kidneys
Hi! I am fairly new to this. My PCP moved so I changed to a new doctor who did bloodwork and referred me to a nephrologist because my eGFR was 36. He had me do the ultrasound and the only thing that stands out to me is Borderline small kidneys without evidence of focal abnormality. Could this mean my

19th Consolidation Run
I completed my first 5K on the Nike Running Club app. I feel very proud of myself for completing this run. I had a friend along today who pushed me when I felt like stopping. However, according to my FitBit it was only 4.88km and my friend said it was the same by his Strava, so I think next time I will

Ascites with No Fibrosis?
When I’ve previously posted I’ve speculated about my diagnosis and was awaiting testing. My MRE came back as fatty 19% when it should be less than 5% but no fibrosis (F0). They do not know why I had ascites and if they’ll return. I am on 12.5 mg HCTZ. I ran out, and I feel my abdomen increasing with
