I knew something was wrong, and I made an appointment with my cardiologist. I have a new doctor, who switched my BP med from propanolol to lisonipril. Im not one to do this usually, but i am overweight and my ankle swells, so the dyharetic idea sounded good. I also have mitral valve prolapse. Beta blockers controlled this extremely well, but now I feel like I need a valve replacement. I came on line to search the relationship between MVP and Lisinopril and WALA! I will kep my cardiologist appointment, but I am going to continue being my own doctor. Symptoms dont lie.
Oh, by the way my wife was just diagnosed with a thyroid problem, and yes you guessed it.....she's on lisinopril.
