Docs have done many blood tests and say I have mild Diabetes and have me on Metamorphin I believe it is . It is very frustrating but sometimes I drink fluids until I am ready to burst. I am on Avalide for high BP but have talked to others with diabetes ( some on insulin ) and on BP meds and they drink nowhere near whay I do or feel thirsty all the time. My body weight can fluctuate as much as 10 lbs during the week ( daily 3-5 max ) .
No significant health problems other than mild hypertension treated with Avalide. My potassium was low (I think due to the HCTZ in the Avalide). I don't drink, smoke or take any recreational drugs. I saw a neurologist, who says the MRI is normal, EEG is not (temporal lobe irregularities). He's on vacation...I'm traveling alot and can't see him for another 2 weeks. Is this a problem I need to see someone about before then?
Recently I was given biaxin by my family doctor not aware of the possible interaction and I began to retain after only two of them. Since then I have not been able to get my blood pressure under control again. I was on avalide, toprol xl, procardia xl along with the norpace and had to take potassium because it would go too low for the norpace. I have not been able to take avalide since the episode and am now on Avapro which works bettermost of the time than using avalide.
Hello, I’ve had high blood pressure since I’ve been a teen quite stable at 160/80 I’m now 27 years old and have been on medication for 2 years now… I started with avopro 150mg I went down to about 145/70, then they changed my medication to avalide 300/12.

I’m 58 yrs old, 5 ft 10 in and 200 lbs. I’ve been taking Avalide 150/12.5 for pre-hypertension for 8 months. I exercise six times per week and have done so for years; weights twice each week and spinning/bike four times. Any thoughts, input would be appreciated.

ve been on Lopressor for years to keep my heart rate down and Avalide for blood pressure. Then in November, my arrthymia worsen. So after about 6 weeks of playing with my Lopressor dosage, my doctor cut the lopressor and put me on Cardizem which is a calcium channel blocker like verapamil. My heart rate became much worse...very rapid like around 120-140....after 3 days of this, I begged to get back on Lopressor so we did and it's back to how it was ...no better no worse....
put me on Avalide and I guess I just need to know, if I go to the gym and lift 300lbs on the bench, am I going to have a stroke? Heart attack? Am I crazy for continuing my regular weight lifting routine?
Confused and Worried!
25, 37.5, 50, 75, and 100. Also, the extended release forms of Venlafaxine capsules come in many strengths too: 37.5, 75, and 150.
Most of the tablet forms will contain Lactose and Gluten. Some of the extended release capsules do not contain neither Gluten nor Lactose. It will help me very much, if I know the dosage form and strength. We might be able to find you a supplier that do not use Lactose and Gluten in its Venlafaxine.
Thanks and be well.
s supposed to, and the goes down the front of my pants.I am taking high blood pressure medication - Avalide. Also I am taking vytorin , Foradil, and spirvia. I drink a lot water at night because my mouth is so dry, from the last two items.I work every day and have had a very active sex life. Again , thanks for your help. melg007 Ps Before the sugery I was taking uroxatrol, but I'm not taking it now.
I really have to push myself to lift any weights (much lighter than before) or do any fast runs. My strengths keep deteriorating and it appears that my muscles just turn into fat and don't develop or at least stay the way how they were before. Has anyone else experience this? Would someone be able to advise how to get my strengths and energy back? I look forward to hear from you.
Hi, as I had posted previously, I went thru PT for 4 months from Sept-Dec. And started PT again in April and added on OT in May.
For my last PT appt another therapist was working with me because mine was out. My therapist is also the manager there. She said she wanted her to do my evaluation again to see if I've reached my goals. At the start, my upper extremities strengths were about 3/5 and lower extremities range from 2/5-3/5.
My upper extremity strengths are now 3+/5.
s , Taking low dose aspirin daily and a diruretic (off of Avalide for blood pressure) and take 1/4 of a 0.5mg of klonopin 2 times a day(am/pm) for the anxiety from this experience. Am presently wearing a Holter monitor for PVC's for 10 days to see if PVC's are a serious problem.. Learning to not be scared and trying to live each day as it comes. Working with a Doc that actually gives a darn.
Experimentation with the various anti-arrhythmics and strengths available carries a risk, and perhaps your physician doesn't want to head down that path with you. Metoprolol is a beta blocker that is usually well tolerated by most, and perhaps this is why he prescribed it for you. 150mg alone can definitely slow you down, and a dose of that strength can also slowly build beyond the therapeutic level that your doctor intended ypu to be on. I had been on strengths as high as 200mg.
They also help keep you from peeing your self when you cough or throw up before and after you have your baby.
I have done the strengths, got messages, and use those little pulse mechines and nothing has been working so far. My question is there a better way yo fix my back?
Even after 4 months of physical therapy, my upper extremities strengths are around 3/5 and my lower extremity strengths are split between 2/5-3/5. And my bilateral hand grip strengths are 19 when they should be 70.
I just had a barium video swallow test again. I had it 2 yrs ago which showed dysphagia (swallowing dysfunction) for SOLID foods. This time I have dysphagia for ALL - thin liquids, thick liquids, & solids.
