I was prescribed batrium for a cyst that a had. The first day I started talking it my eyes started to turn blood shot red and with a little bit of swelling around my whole face. Then more things came like itching on my legs and the bottom of my feet, dizzy, headaches, and feeling so sick to my stomach that I even throw up. This is the fourth day of it, I am going to stop talking it to see if the swelling on my face is going to go down.

Has anyone had eye irritation while using the Ring? I had "dry eyes" two years ago and was prescribed drop which I had to use for months, since then I have not had to use them and have had no issues with my eyes.
Recently I've experienced the same condition in one eye, itchy, kind of swollen.
I was just wondering if the nuvaring may have aggravated it? (It has thus far been the cause of every other problem I've had lately)

I am a 48 year old female and have been taking Lisinopril for 5 weeks now and I feel like CRAP! I ended up going to the med.check because I thought I had something wrong with me from coughing so much but I didn't have a cold, or fever any other side effects but this horrible cough that I coughed so much and hard my eyes would get blood shot and I didn't know that. Now 5 weeks later it is because of Lisinopril. I just found out today. I was starting to be tired and really grouchy and mean very moody and not getting any sleep at night so I would suggest NOT taking this drug. Plus I have gained weight from it just in 5 weeks. DON'T TAKE THIS DRUG it will mess you up !

I am a 24 year old male. I started taking 25 mg toprol because I was rushed to the hospitol with left face, back left of my head and left arm going numb. At arrival my blood pressure reading was 202/120 and they couldn't get it down right away and I don't think they had any idea what was wrong. They did a million test and the only thing they fpund out they thought was that my (I think my white blood cells being at 56) so they said I had polysithemia( not sure of the spelling) so they sent me home with 25 mg of toprol and every other week drawing a pint of blood from me. Which sort of helped but then I started getting these terrible headeaches in the back left of my head that are the worst pain, it shuts me right down its hard to function. and at this time blood pressure was still pretty high 165-170/95-105 on average. so they upped my dose to 50 mg and for a couple of months I just dealt with the pain that I was still having cause I gave up on my doctors they were realy starting to piss me off. then I had another check up and my blood pressure I told them was still high 145-155/95-100 so they upped my dose again to 100 mg. but know I have terrible lower back pain which I thought it was my kidneys but got check and it isn't same damn head aches tingling in my left part of my face, deep muscle pain, leg cramps all the time specially my left calf for some reason, my eyes are swelled shut 3 out of 7 days a week and through out the day my eyes are almost always blood shot red, like there bleeding. and like all this isn't enough I have had mono, tharyngitis lyarangitis, scarlet fever, pneumonea, and broncittis all in the last 6 to 7 months. Fun!!! any feed back would be greatly appreciated
thanks

Someone, please tell me how long this coughing will last! I took Lisinopril for 4 weeks. During that time I had many of the same symptoms that I'm reading now, but didn't realize what was causing them. But after 3 weeks of a constant dry cough that led to gagging more often than not and cough attacks every hour on the hour even at night, I turned to the Internet to research tickling coughs. I too was sure I had throat cancer after experiencing lung cancer just a year ago. After reading all of these experiences from all of the people on this site, I was relieved yet furious. I called to inform my doctor of the side effect of the coughing that was keeping me from going anywhere but work (I'm a teacher so you can imagine how difficult that is). I was consuming 10 - 15 cough drops a day and night which was not helping my weight issue. She prescribed Toprol which I researched and read that it should not be taken if you have had a history of lung issues. Needless to say, I'm not going to take that either. My blood pressure is pre-hypertension so I believe I can control that myself with exercise and diet. It's been 5 days since I stopped taking the Lisinopril and the coughing has not subsided at all. I was up every hour on the hour last night and that was with taking a sleep aid.
