Atacand HTC [candesartan + hydrochlorothiazide] may raise blood sugars. Consult with your pharmacist regarding Atacand drug interactions with ANY and ALL drugs/supplements/herbs/vitamins you are taking which may elevate blood sugars. If none exists consult with your doctor on switching to another bp medication.

I read about a trial where they were using Candesartin (Atacand) to prevent scar tissue from forming in the liver, as it's an angiotensin receptor blocker. Atacand saved my life. I had heart failure, almost on the transplant list. I found a great doc at UCDavis (after firing one in Auburn who almost killed me), who put me on the Atacand. My heart is now normal! So when I saw this trial I was really curious.

I would find another doc.; I agree with selmaS something is not right. When you do find another doc give them a good "interview" as I call it before you even go. Read abouit thier credentials, a lot of hospitals have their doctor's papers/acheivements/ credentials listed. It's so frustrating and dangerous when doctors do this. Fwiw: I had a similar experience with a local ns here in N. Al.

I'm curious how many folks have been diagnosed with depression rather than a doctor acknowledging CMI? I had a CAT & MRI, I absolutely have a fatty tumor on the brain & Chiari Malformation I with tonsils fully decended down the foramen mangum. I just found out end of January after having issues for 14 yrs. I started having issues about 23, I'm 37 now. I did go to a few doctors through the years but was told be more active...

All came back normal, except her MRI with contrast showed CMI with 6mm. No symptoms for CMI so she was labeled asymptomatic. She got an infection and a blood clot from the IV when she got the MRI, and was put on an antibiotic and aspirin. It (the infection and clot) cleared-up after a couple of weeks, but at about the exact same (late Dec) she felt nauseous, had neck pain, and a radiating headache. This went on for about 4 days, and then began to wane.

What does her doctor say? I would follow her dr.s advice.

Hi all - I was diagnosed with CMI just about 2 years ago after a particularly symptomatic bout. In addition to CMI, I was found to have a 4.5 CM posterior fossa arachnoid cyst, which may be the cause for the CMI. Since diagnosis, I have been dealing with it symptomatically (managing headaches, mostly). However, I was recently found to have significant high-frequency hearing loss, and have been suffering from significant tinnitus for 6+ months now.

I had a CT Angiogram done for any Aortic disection or Aortic aneurysm, all came back clear, my aorta and all related vessels were within normal range. My cardiologist put me on Atacand as my blood pressure tended to be around 130/70, he advised me while my blood pressure wasnt excessively high, that taking Atacand would lower it a little and make my heart beat with greater efficiency.

Hi all I am 50 (will b 51 in few months), with high bp managed with Atacand plus and last visit my doc said im perimenopausal. At the end of last year my cycle missed then it came on 18th Feb and lasted till 22nd March. It then returned couple days ago and I've spent the day with horrible cramps and each evening around 6pm it's as it a tap has been turned on and I bleed profusely. I am going to my doctor first thing Monday but just wondered if anyone else has had this experience?

Hello , I am 43 year old and have high blood pressure i regularly take high BP medicines metropolol and Atacand 16 plus. I have taken all test and my heart seem ok and vessels are clear but my left chest pain just above the left breast does not go away. pain sometimes extend to left arm. also i have a left leg slight partial tightness feeling, Shortness of breath, Chest heaviness, fatigued, sleepy and irritable, Excessive daytime drowsiness, . Doctor says nothing is wrong!

He takes Atacand, Norvasc and Bystalic for blood pressure, Zolof, Restasis for his eyes and an Excelon Patch for his memory. He is very stubborn and refuses to go to a geriatric doctor and his own doctors don't seem to know nor do they seem concerned about what's causing it.

selmaS is wise. Fwiw I have to warn MRI technicians that certain positions agrivate my CMI issues. Usualy they try to accomidate me anyway they can; they just often don't think about what certain positions do to a person with neuro issues.

I have been unable to contact the individuals who have been documented to have gone through a similar experience. I have reasonable CMI but virtually no passive immunity, (humoral) for this virus. (characteristic lesion, prodrome and localised reactiviation confirms original infection, IgG negative, no florid eruptions so expectation is that CMI is still effective).

Digioxin, Atacand, Carvedialol, Laisx, Sastin, and Asprin 81 mg twice. My cardiac parametres EF: 48 MR: 1- 2+ TR: 1- 2+ Liver and kidney function tests are more or less within the range. Uric acid is usually high.

Hi; I'm new to MedHelp and to this community. I was DX with CMI in 1999, quite by accident, when I was having neck pain, radiating shoulder, arm and hand pain, numbness and tingling in my arm & hand. Doctors did a brain and c-spine MRI w/wo contrast, then referred me to a Neurosurgeon. The NS asked me if I ever had headaches. I said "sure I do, doesn't everyone?

t remember the numbers) so he put me on Atacand to help bring it down. At the same time I began changing my diet and started exercising regularly and ultimately lost 60lbs and was off the Atacand after a few months. Anyways, since then I've gained the weir back and my blood pressure has once again become high. Last reading was 154/101 as of last weekend. So I am back on the Atacand to try and get this under control again.

I am 38 yrs old. WT 222 ht 5'4, diabetic and taking lipitor, and 2 mg atacand. Female and Hispanic. I have had a constant cough for quite a while. I would like to know why?

) Glad to hear u r back taking classes....

JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS Cardiopulmonary obstructive disease (COPD), in which airflow through your lungs is decreased, MY HUSBAND IS 53 YEARS OLD AND WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A INFRARENAL AORTIC ANNEURYSM 45 WITH EXTENSIVE MURAL THROMBUS IN ABDOMENT AFTER GOING FOR A ROUTINE BLOOD TEST WICH WS NORMAL AND A URINE TEST AS HE HAS HAD MICROSOCOIC HEMATURIA BUT AS HIS RESSURE WAS HIGH THE DOCTOR CHECKED ON HIS ALBUMIN AND HE IT WS 618, AS HE HAS HYERTENSION, IT SHOULD BE BELOW 25, SO THEY DID A RENAL ULT

I already take Efexor XP 300mg daily, Alapam 30mg daily and medication for high blood pressure, Aldomet 500mg night and morning; Atacand 16mg daily, Dapatabs 30mg daily and 1800mg Caltrate following a bone density test, Somac 2 x 40mg tablets daily for Barrett's Disease and have a yearly endoscopy. Stress factors contribute to my general feeling of unwellness. I suffer with fibromyalgia and have arthritis in the spine and knees.

I'm sort of jumping in here. I'm having endocrine issues as well, and I believe it's due to my cmI squishing my pituitary. For me it's weight maintenance and vitamin D levels that are being affected. Fwiw, I'm 41 and far from menopause. My sister who has CMI, tethered cord, eds, and bassilar invagination does have a lot of cycle related issues. I also found that the meds I was on post op adversely affected my skin and cycles.
