The best protection for your kidneys is the same thing that protects against other diabetic complications: Well-controlled blood sugar.

Stress factors contribute to my general feeling of unwellness. I suffer with fibromyalgia and have arthritis in the spine and knees.
Avatar m tn In April 2010 I experienced major shortness of breath and my Atacand was reduced to 16 mg per day.That relieved the shortness of breath. My current GP doctor stopped Atacand in October 2012. In November 2011 I had an echocardiogram at that time my LVEF was 60%. The mean pressure gradient was 16.5mHG, the max pressure gradient was 30.0 mmHG. The aortic valve area was calculated to be 0.70 cm² That echocardiogram was performed in a hospital.

1557045 tn?1294555036 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.
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar n tn This may be indirectly related to your other symptoms as well and you may need to be evaluated further. The neck and occipital pain may be musculoskeletal issues as well and may respond to pain medications and ice pack. If it persists, you may need to have this checked by your doctor for proper evaluation. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar m tn Hello, I'm wondering if anyone else with high blood pressure might be able to shed some light on whether some symptoms I've been experiencing might have to do with high blood pressure or not. First a quick background; I'm 34, male, 250lbs. I've been fighting high blood pressure for a few years now.
Avatar n tn 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?

Avatar f tn I've always had low bp, usually around 100/50 and my heart rate runs from 48 to 58 and I function completely normally. Even after exercising or jogging, it's rarely above 90. Very seldom do I get dizzy and I think when I do get dizzy, it has more to do with my breathing than my heart rate - my sinuses are so bad. I'm extremely active most of the time and it doesn't slow me down a bit.
Avatar f tn Get your lab results IE TSH, Free T3 and Free T4 Including the reference ranges they use and post them here, then members can comment and explain them to you. Its hard to respond without labs.
Avatar n tn Your father needs to follow his doctor's orders. Three yrs on these meds and so far no side effects I would not worry. As for side effect for long use? BP meds have to be taken long term otherwise the side effect " without" meds could be a stroke or heart attack. As for the natural stuff, it depends how high your father's BP is, and what his doctor says.
Avatar n tn I am now on betaloc 100mg half a tablet / 12 hours and atacand 8mg at lunch time. my BP is average 130/80 and my HR is average 70 bpm. I still suffer from these attacks of irregular heart beats lasting fo seconds and without any other symptoms. another doctor advised me to do an upper GIT endoscopy or barium meal. I am very much confused ...
Avatar m tn I take blood pressure control medication, and that includes coreg. I lift weights and treadmill exercise and my heart rate and blood pressure and heart rate doesn't not get very high. If you have controlled bp, you may want to ask your doctor before resistance training. Have you had serial testing for a growth pattern? The 4.1 to 4.3 cm is not very large, but it is in the risk category.
Avatar n tn I got sick and tired of feeling like a Zombie because of the Medication. I seem ok with my Atacand blood pressure Medication. I decided I didn't want to feel unwell no more and have a better quality of life and to feel well. I turned to an experienced naturepath who is also certified as a professional. She put me on a few natural alternatives and diet. I also stepped up my excercise regime.
Avatar n tn At first, things tasted metallic or chemically, then that subsided and things tasted like cardboard, and now, I can taste mostly extremely salty or sweet food. In addition, the worst problem I'm having now is that I have the feeling that there is something stuck in my throat...something big. And I have a cough and a constant need to clear my throat. The ENT stuck a scope down my nose and looked around and saw only inflammation.

Avatar f tn But I have tried to control with diet and then my blood pressure goes up I get dizziness and blurry vision and my heart rate goes up. I know millions of people are on Blood pressure meds, so they must be tolerated. Does anyone else have this problem?
