Went to Dr. 2 days ago. BP was 142/80 and he about had a fit. I didn't think that was so terrible. But in addition to Dyazide and Verapamil (been on them for years with no major complaints), he added Lisinopril, 5 mg. daily. It's been two days now and I'm done with the Lisinopril. I immediately got a headache, chest pain, leg pain and weakness, dizziness with a feeling of just being "off", had to take naps both days, blurred vision, loss of appetite, and I have neck and shoulder pain. Lucky I found this website. I usually tolerate prescription drugs very well - but feel poisoned after JUST 2 DAYS on a small dosage, 5mg. of Lisinopril. I'm calling my Dr. tomorrow, out of courtesy, to let him know that I'm not continuing to take this nasty pill. Thank you for listening.
