Avatar f tn the report states that I have Stage 1 diastolic dysfunction with elevated LV filling pressure. Additional blood test done for kidney and liver function, diabetes screening, lipid profile all shows normal functioning. You may be wondering why I don't seem to raise all the above with my doctor but please don't ask me to do so as my doctor seems to be more inclined towards reinstating the very low dose of amlodipine.
Avatar f tn I had an aunt who died from liver cancer and her liver function tests were normal until the end stages. However, it is common to have cysts in the liver and fatty areas that aren't a problem. When I was dx they found a hemangioma in my liver and another cyst and there were two cysts in my kidneys. Before my surgery, I thought this must indicate cancer had spread there only to find out that most of us do have some sort of cyst congenitally or as we age. My dr.
678069 tn?1254422777 Well, not only did my latest bloodwork show all my blood counts are good, but my liver function is now NORMAL!! Are you kidding me?? Its been a long time since that was the case. I couldnt believe it when my Dr said it. I could definitely get used to hearing that! Add to all that the fact that my side effects are minimal. The only thing I deal with on a regular basis is mild fevers. But Advil usually takes care of it.

Avatar m tn hypertension is a common problem post-liver transplantation and a diet rich in sodium can definitely exacerbate and contribute to this.
Avatar f tn Did you have a kidney function test or test for blood sugar levels? How long are you taking the Amlodipine?? Did you have 24 ABPM test to get a full day BP average?
20003202 tn?1488258062 (stopped working), now just Amlodipine 10 mg. Since taking the Amlodipine 10 mg. for about a week, my blood pressure keeps going higher and higher. Today readings were between 160/90 - 165/125. Also, my lower legs are sore, I have dizziness and feel light-headed, and are extremely lethargic. Is there any light at the end of the tunnel? Is there a cleaner medication with better results and less side effects. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am desperate....
Avatar f tn m taking regularly is Telmisartan amlodipine besilate 40/5 for my hypertension, one tablet a day, which i take afterr breakfast. I also take Centrum Silver, one tablet a day, after breakfast or after lunch. I don't have anxiety, hand tremors, or eye problems. I don't have insomnia either. My T3 and T4 values are very close to the highest normal value. Do you suggest I consult a doctor? What kind of doctor would you suggest I see? Thank you.
Avatar m tn Hi, I just received my liver function test and am concerned. I am a social drinker who has no more than 2 glasses of wine maybe 4x a week (no hard liquor). My test results were GGT 105; ALT 154: AST 80...What does this indicate? This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/234245'>slightly elevated alt � ast</a>.
Avatar n tn I was just prescribed amlodipine for my gastritis how ever I can't seem to find any info about it being helpful for that. All the info I have found is about blood pressure. Is this a common prescription? Should I be concerned if I already have low blood pressure?
Avatar f tn I am so worried now about liver disease and cirrhosis. If my liver was inflammed would doctor not have felt this at appontment as she said it was kidney? Would the ultrasound have to have showed liver problems for a LFT to be done or could this be routine ? If you have gall stones would a doctor check your liver function? If anyone can help i would be really grateful. I am so worried.
Avatar n tn When i went in to see her she avised me that my liver function test results were high (166), she also said that my white blood cell count was high! I'm just a bit worried that something may be wrong, the tests were arranged as i have little red spots appearing all over my body, almost like little spider veins, i now have to wait to have the tests done again, does anyone know what this may mean?
Avatar n tn My brother in law has chirosis, and the doctor said only 2% liver function. Hi stomach is hugh and his legs are so bloated he can no longer walk. His first doctor wrote him off said he is all done. He went to a new doctor who put him on water pills. He has been taking them a couple weeks, without improvement. He is itchy, very yellow, and is so tired, his words are slurred. He is going to see a liver specialist tomorrow. Any input is appreciated.
