1260320 tn?1270394906 Hi Jon, Thanks for your reply. I have not heard Benicar, so i'll google abt it later. I am recently put on candesartan but I have not taken it yet. I guess I m kinda scared of the side effects.
Avatar m tn A high prolactin level is seen in hypothyroidism, liver disease, kidney disease, pituitary tumor etc.A high prolactin level can cause menstrual irregularities, infertility, discharge from breast and mood swings.

Best wishes and regards!
Avatar n tn I get that dry cough too. I don't take an ACE inhibitor though, I don't think. Just Lopressor, Dyazide/Maxzide, Lipitor and aspirin for the heart issues. For me it started a couple of years ago one summer after pushing myself too hard. I start coughing out of the blue to the point of either just about passing out or vomiting mucus. Urgg My chest hurts and feels sunken in, pounds very hard and quivers sort of and then I'm fine till it happens again.
Avatar n tn It may be replaced with valsartan or candesartan which do not usually cause this side effect. The verapamil usually does not cause this side effect. This may not be related to your medications, and chronic cough or ' bronchial asthma' may actually be cardiac in nature ( e.g. CHF). Make sure your physician takes this other consideration into account.
Avatar f tn I suffer allergic reactions to blood pressure medications. Over a long period I have tried a huge number of different BP meds, and not found one that eventually didn't make me feel unwell. The most recent, Candesartan, lowered my BP in the first few days, but after that it gradually rose again to a point where my BP was way above normal levels and I was suffering severe chest pains..
Avatar n tn Personally, I take valsartan, but my friends have experienced similar success (or better) with candesartan, telmisartan, losartan (although this drug is surmountable and thus theoretically not the best one to take), irbesartan, and, for ACE inhibitors, perindopril.

The multicystic kidney (MKD) is a non-functioning kidney and its bulky mass is not causing any discomfort to some. Doctors can manage MKD by preventing and treating infections, maintaining blood pressure, and addressing any issues that arise with surgery. However, it is still controversial for this kidney to be removed. It is more important to repair any critical anatomic defect in the patient's other kidney.
377521 tn?1203473172 Anyone ever have kidney infections or other kidney problems related to hep C? I have hep C....no treatment yet, but I have lots of sharp pain in my midright back about where the kidney shold be (I think). Maybe it is unrelated. Just seems strange it has come at the same time I am dealing with this hep C issue.
5752933 tn?1383533437 So I had this problem with my last pregnancy,.and unfortunately it's here with this one too. The uterus kinks off my ureter to my kidney so it doesn't drain very well.

Avatar f tn Also have had a recent ultra sound on kidney and bladder and shows the right kidney has several syct and a fatty tumor on it. I am undergoing another ultra sound in three months.

Kidney stones can lead to kidney infections and eventually chronic kidney disease. Eat cauliflower raw with a hummus dip or steam it with a squeeze of lemon. Cauliflower is also delicious smashed with low fat sour cream and fresh parsley.
