Ae symptoms and conditions

Hi,
A cardiologist prescribed Lisnopril 10mg for me three days ago because my BP was above 160/90 even though I was taking HCTZ. All day yestersday, I was extremely energyless. I went to the gym to see my trainer, but could not lift a finger to exercise. I feel like I have a fever, but I do not have one. I've had headache since yesterday. I slept 10 hours last night, but woke up still extremely tired and unable to function properly. I have dizziness, uneasiness, shortness of breath, tightness in the chest area, and I feel strain around my eyes. Today, I went to the emergency room, because I knew something was seriously wrong with my heart or that my blood count was low. There was nothing. After reviewing several postings on this site, I realize these are side effects of Lisinopril. As of today, I am off this. I wil see my physician on Monday. Hopefully, she will understand.

my 13 yr. old daughter has been on 150mg. per day for about 9 months, have noticed major acne(cheeks,chin -very inflamed), huge wt. gain-from 92-134 lbs. in 6mo., she started her periods mid April and has had long periods with heavy bleeding and now for the second time in 31/2 months is anemic despite being put on birth control pills to stop the bleeding- she is exhausted-sleeping 12-14 hours per day-this is not her usual pattern.Previously thought her wt. gain was from Seroquel but even after being off it for 61/2 months there has been no wt. loss. The only other time she has had wt. gain with a med. is Tegretol- so maybe I shouldn't be suprised that she has this response to anothe AE.

My husband was put of Lipitor after having a heart attack in 2002 (heart attack caused by taking VIOXX for arhtritis - that was taken off the market in October 2004). Now after taking Lipitor for almost 3 years, he has Statin-induced Parkinson's Disease (addressed in a German Medical Jouirnal). Was just recently taken off of Parkinson's medication (caused nausea); taken off Lipitor and Niaspan (both for cholestral lowering) because he was losing lots of weight and had no energy. Now I'm wondering if the Parkinson's symptoms (tremors, etc.) are reversible. Whatever my husband was given for illnesses in the past have caused additional and worse illnesses. I wish all cardiologists knew that they ae taking away our quality of life. My husband's tremors keep him from driving and enjoying everyday life.
