hello, patches here. Just to update my previous posting. Having stopped taking lisinopril over the past couple of weeks i now have no bloating and can wear rings again as my fingers are slimmer and my tummy is no longer solid bloat, the black tarry loose stools also have stopped but i still have bouts of urticaria from time to time. I wonder if anyone knows how long it takes to get this poison out of the system. Also i got chest pains from the amlodipine and the doctor conducted an ecg and blood test which both came back ok so it must have been the amlodipine. She has now given me candesartan but i have not started to take it yet as she said to wait until after the Christmas break in case i had a bad reaction when there were no doctors at the surgery. I can't believe i am the only one suffering this way and would like to hear from others and maybe someone can give me positive feedback. My blood pressure has gone up as i am not on any medication. Yesterday i felt very ill indeed - dizzy and panicky and later on had a bad rash on my arm and back of neck. today is slightly better so wonder, again, if i had a virus or if it is still the effects of the lisinopril. if anyone can advise i would be so grateful. many thanks.
