I was hungover, ate prosciutto, hands were shaking like crazy. I thought I'd measure it just for the fun of it. It wasn't fun when the numbers never in 10 measurement went lower than 210/120, going to the ER made things worse. It was all in my head. But we fixed it. Hell started. 2 months passed and

I am a 62-yo white female. Everything was fine last night and then I woke with blurry vision that glasses, time, and artificial tears have not cleared up. I can read if everything is greatly magnified, but everything is super blurry. Due to my complex history, I'm never sure which physician is the r

I was issuing a lot of Exforge HCT (amlodipine/valsartan/hctz) before the big valsartan recall. I only know of one other triple combo like it which is Tribenzor (amlodipine/olmesartan/hctz). I am not the biggest fan of olmesartan due to the rare occurrence of a Sprue like diarrhea. Are there any oth

I was put on 5mg Amlodipine besylate (Norvasc) about a month ago to pair with my 160mg Valsartan for blood pressure. Two or three weeks ago, I was in my truck at work and almost fainted.
