readings is very good, 110/70. But eversince I started the Norvasc, my left leg is swelling and it is becoming worst. I'd like to ask my Doctor to discontinue the Norvasc.

Can you please tell me what other good medications to be taken with the Diovan. I appreciate your help.
They usually hit me 2 or 3 times a night and when I wake in the morning time, I am soar all over from muscle fatigue. I have had mri and ct of the brain, neck and abdominal and chest areas, all kinds of blood work, colonoscopy and everything comes back normal. The only thing the ct showed was a hemangioma on my L2 vertebrae. I am on diovan hct for blood pressure and simvastatin for cholesterol. My vision has even changed a little bit in my right eye.
However, I have trouble sleeping, dry skin/hair, loosing hair, early menopause, fuzzy thinking, headaches(migraines), fatigue, increased difficulty losing weight, muscle cramps and frequent muscle aches(on meds for arthritis), irritability etc. All seem to be symptome of hypothyroidism, yet my endo will not even try a low dose synthroid. I am taking Diovan HCT and the few things I have read, say it can skew the results. I am at my wits end in trying to feel better.

I had taken Toprolol when much younger and in normal sinus rhythm (then it too was 50mg SR) and it had no side effects that I can recall, I was still running for exercise.
You might want to discuss using a calcium channel blocker to lower blood pressure.
In all my comments are made with no knowledge of "diovan" and its side-effects.
Good luck in finding a way to keep the BP normal, that is an important issue.
Its not just my calf muscle, but my ankle and tops of my feet too. How are leg cramps and diabetes associated? I am a diabetic, but have been controlling my BS levels pretty well. At diagnosis my A1C was 11.5 and at my last check up I had it down to 5.9. (although it might not be quite that good at my next check up, I know it is nowhere near that high of a reading) Any suggestions on relief from the leg cramps?

Has anyone had problems with leg cramps on Tomoxifin? I was on Arimidex for 3 years and had extreme viginal dryness to the point of very painfull intercourse. Changed to Tomoxifin and my OBGYN prescribed Vagifem and problem solved for the dryness. BUT... now I have leg cramps all night long if I have been on my feet at all during the day. I had blood tests done and it showed low sodium, potasium and the BIN alittle low.
Pickle juice or tonic water. I swear it works! I'd get up and drink some pickle juice out of the jar and then crawl back in bed and sleep great. I ate a ton of bananas (A TON) and I'm telling you, pickle juice is the answer! I mention tonic water because an old lady I know drinks a glass every night for her restless leg syndrome and she swears by it. I like pickles so it's a personal preference.
ve gotten what I thought to be really bad leg cramps until tonight....I woke up with a leg cramp so bad I was screaming and crying in pain! It hurt so bad and it lasted a few minutes with nothing I could do and now over an hour later it's still tight . If I can suggest anything at this point ladies drink LOTS of water and stretch every day, and if you have an amazing partner like mine have them massage your legs before bed!
