I just posted and forgot to add regarding the kidneys/adrenal glands. I asked an OBGYN (not reg doc - won't go back to her again) about this med and she said it was pretty much benign to the body. She stated though that if I did want to become pregnant to be sure to get off first. I was curious then and asked exactly what Lisinopril does to a fetus. She stated - pretty much the kidneys don't develop at all during pregnancy. I then retorted - "that only makes me wonder what this med is doing to MY kidneys now!" She just smugly had nothing to say. You cannot tell me that this is not hurting people. I am going to lose weight now and get off all meds. I only take this and I know with diet/weight loss and exercise it's possible for me. Besides sometimes when I check my BP it's high still and other times, like the day of surgery, it was lower than normal.
