Feces symptoms and conditions

I've been taking Lisinopril for about 4 months and I've experienced the following issues. First, I have frequent visits to the bathroom and have a hard time defecating. At times after pushing and relieving my urge to go, only a small amount of feces is the result. I also feel constipated and have a hard painful time passing my feces. This started and has continued while I've been taking this medication. I don't have any pain other than in my anus because of the feces. Does anyone have a similar issue in relation to this medication?

does tetracycline turn your feces a darker color

I am on Atacand (16mg.) for BP. I retain fluid, and have a probelm with one ankle swelling. My doctor put me on Maxide for the water retention. I now have less energy and my hair and skin feels dryer . So, I am actually on 2 meds. for high blood pressure??
Isn't tthere just a "water Pill" I could be put on?
I am on the generic for Maidxe Triam/HTC and was getting it from Eckerds, but just orderd th 3 month supply that my insurance offers.This new pill(Generic) and has 3 side effects listed that the pill from Eckerds did not have. I am getting now 2 stories... one from Eckerds. that say no side effects and one from RX Delivery, listing 3. ...may cause discoloration of urine and feces, avoid exposure to sunlight , and Be sureand take with food. None of these ever appeared on the bottle from Eckerss. and they say "NO" to these 3.I have not taken the new one yet!!
Have I called my Dr.?? No.
What do you think? I am 65.

A confirmation - I also am having very loose, watery bowels, going to the bathroom frequently. It's killing all the normal intestinal flora (hence the watery feces) along with my persistant bronchitis. My lungs feel better, but my abdominals are upset. Definitely reaching for the Acidophilus when my course of antibiotics is over.

Horrible abdominal cramping that lasts 24 hours after one pill is taken. Followed by extremely hard feces.
