I am hoping that this will help at least one person, to get off of lisinopril There is a big difference between "side effects" and actual symtoms that are happening to most of us that take lisinopril. Side effects usually occur shortly after taking a certain medication. i took lisinopril for 2 years and gradually all the symptoms escallated and continued to get worse over time. i tought i was dying, i did so many test to find out what was wrong with me, cost a fortune, eventually i realised that all of these things were being caused by lisinopril. I had shortness of breath,muscle weakness, joint pain, after every meal i was so bloated and a very heavy feeling at night , i could hardly turn in my bed because of being so weak and felling heavy, and the worse was this lump in my throat that got worse every day until i could not swallow or even breath i decided to do MRI ,found nothing , i ran out of lisinopril medication and this immediately got better, i have stopped taking for 1 month and i feel a lot better but still trying to recover from these "side Effects"

Can you help me with some kind of timeline of when these sd effects will go away i keep wanting to go to the doctor to find out if something else is wrong but the doctor is where all of this started know what i mean.
