Sence symptoms and conditions

My experience with Lisinopril is brutal! I'm 37 years old and was prescribed this drug for high blood pressure. After 2 yrs. on a 10 mg. dose per day I started having numbness in both of my arms I also had sharp pain shooting down both arms at night to the point where I couldn't sleep.And when I did fall asleep I would just wake up an hour later in tremendous pain. Ive been to three doctors. They tested me for carpal tunnal and told me I had it. But didn't schedule any plan of action, so I thought with some rest it would go away but it didn't It got worse. Then I started to have severe back pain that went clear through to my So the doctor wanted me to get an ultrasound of my testicles to check for testicular cancer. The test was negative. Since the pain was on the right side in my lower ribcage area they then thought it may be my kidneys. They then sent me to a urologist who wanted to go up my penis to scope my bladder with a camera and check for bladder cancer. Which turned out to be a very very painful experience. There was nothing wrong he said. During this time the pain was as bad as ever. Then they wanted to do exploritory kidney surgery on my right kidney. I was thinking my god am I gonna die.....I went through the surgery and the doctor said there was nothing wrong.I could not believe I was in this much pain and they couldn't find anything wrong. I thought I was dying for real. Then I decided to go on web md and try to find out anything that it could possibly be. I couldn't find anything with all the symptoms that made any seance. A few months went by with no relief... I decided one day to google my medication (Lisinopril) and joint pain, w/ arm numbness well. This site popped up and I started reading and Im glad I did. I believe that for the past year that I thought I was dying and no one could tell me why is because of this toxic poisons pill Ive been taking for two years is the reason for all of it. Ive spent thousands of dollars, had two surgery's ,went through all this pain all because of a little poison pill for blood pressure. I have flushed my pills and I,m never taking the drug again. I warn anyone who has high blood pressure if your doctor mentions the word Lisinopril tell them no!!!!!!!!! It is poison for the body.I believe it would killed me if I hadn't stopped taking it and not one doctor mentioned it may be the pill I was taking everyday for my blood pressure.

Hi, I was looking for a way to describe what it is how I feel as I go through my 3 days. This is the second time that I have done this treatment, if not for my first results I would not have done this again. The first time was a year ago and almost instantly the taste in my mouth was like I had a mouth full of rusted pennies. Then within hours the pain, the pain was so bad it brought me to tears. EVERY inch of my body hurt, having clothes on or a sheet touching me was unbearable. My skin hurt, it did not make any sence to me and I called my Doctor and explained how I was feeling to the best of my ability. I was given sleeping pills to take so that I could sleep through the pain and make it to the second day. It was worse as the 3 days went on, I never thought I would do this to myself again but I had results quickly so when my eyesight started going last week and the headaches were unbearable I chose to try this again.
Yesterday was my first day, I was up at 3 I think because I was worried about the pain, I was not due to start the IV until 9:30. I went and within 1/2 hour of starting the taste was there, 2 hours later my feet felt as though my toes were going to explode. 3 hours after that the pain was up to my knees, throbbing, shooting, knawing at my legs. In another 6 hours it was up to my thighs, I was sure at this point that I could no longer walk every movement I made took everything I had. I laid on my bed and cried. By 2 am, still no sleep and the pain was in the middle of my back, I went and laid in the bath, very hot. I was okay for about an hour and was almost asleep when the pain retuned. I knew I should keep track of what I was feeling but as I tried to explain to my friends today it just does not seem real. They wonder why I would do this but they dont know what it is like if I dont. So as I started my second one today I was so tired and I finally did fall asleep for the last 20 minutes of it. It is now 12 hours later and still no more sleep, so much pain and less than 12 hours before my next and last one. At this point I have had 2 baths, Taken tylenol 3, tylenol and the pain is here. I think I am going to be awake again tonight but I just need to get through tomorrow. I do not remember from last year how long I felt the pain afterwards but I dont think it was more than a few days. I am a single mom with a very active 7 year old and it is so hard to go through this with him. I have been told that I have a high pain tolerance, I have many tattoos, piercings I take copaxone every day and give myself my needle but what happens on this drug is unreal. I know people all experience differnt pain but I cannot imagine anyone not feeling it like this or worse. I know it worked for me the first time and quite quickly and that is why I was ready to go through this again. It is hard.

After prolonged use, my spouse seemed to loose all feelings and emotions. It was as if he didn't care about anything. Has anybody else had this happen?

I took prednisone for 6 days - weaned off. I took it for poison ivy. Ended up with a rash/hives worst than what the poison ivy did. I took this drug about 8 years ago with no ill effects. Now at 48, I am swollen and itchy ALL over my body. While on it, I suffered from insomnia, nausea, and loss of appetite. I also noticed I was in a fog, which I didn't realize was a side effect until I read these other entries. How long do these side effects go on? I would love to lose this rash!
