Common Questions and Answers about Protonix and high blood pressure

protonix

Avatar m tn I only started taking protinix 8 days ago and have had horrible stomach pain. Back in October my Gastro doc did an endoscopy and results were esophagitis; basically inflammation and several small ulcers. He described aciphex. My insurance initially said they didn't cover it, but the dr sent over an authorization & I was told it was good for one year. First two months my copay was $75 but in January when I went to p/u @ pharmacy I was told it was $480.
1346429 tn?1303874854 I can no longer take my heart meds for high blood pressure and irregular hb; topomax for migraines; metaphormin; and a few others. Which I quit taking some of my meds before pregnancy because I did a lifestyle change in which it helped enough that I could quit taking the extra meds. As far as C-section...both my boys were early but big because of the diabetes (not gestational) and I could not have them natually so this is another C-section baby.
Avatar f tn Hi Selma, I thank God that I had an abdominal ulrasound and cat scan with and without IV contrast and all was clear. I was so afraid that I had pancreatic cancer. My Dr told me that the CT scan was the best test for the pancreas. I just get nervous because I still get a discomfort way up high under my breastboneand occasionaly in my back but my Dr said this could be acid reflux. My endescopy also showed that I have gastritis which I know is painful as well.
Avatar n tn s unlikely you can handle the problem by simply adding a magnesium supplement, since your blood pressure has always been low. Adding magnesium could tend to make the blood pressure drop even more. Hopefully there will be other ways, besides taking Nexium, that your acid reflux symptoms can be addressed. FWIW, I was on Prilosec for years, finally had to stop because of the side effects, and now am off of it with no problems.
1479013 tn?1330699762 I liken it to when you are full and you bend over to tie your shoe and you feel so much pressure on your stomach and diaphragm area and your head feels full of pressure. That's what I feel like after I eat and I am NOT bending over. I wake up in the middle of the night with this feeling of not being able to breathe--like I need to move into a different position that doesn't constrict my lungs and my heart will feel like it's racing.
Avatar f tn My medication consists of Tambocor (anti arythemic heart med) high blood pressure meds, cholosteral meds, protonix for gerd, baby aspirin, xanax. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Pharmacist says no drug interaction actions.
Avatar m tn M TAKING HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH MY LIVER?
915119 tn?1341948989 if your blood pressure is too high it restricts the blood vessels and can stop baby from getting enough blood and oxygen. if it gets extremely high it can cause seizures. are you seeing spots or having blurred vision? I agree with bjbbeauchamp, try nor to stress! and if it goes up any more then go to L&D! its better to be safe than sorry! I have had HORRIBLE swelling in my legs for months now, but no protein in my urine until the other week.
Avatar n tn I am 35 years old and never thought I had HIgh Blood pressure until recently. As I am into my higher studies, when visiting the doctor for a fall, they told me I had high pressure readings of 160/110. My pulse was also high, ( I was diagnosed with tachycardia some years ago which was again put down to stress.) They put it down to anxiety and stress, and gave me atenenol 25 mg. Since then I have developed a fear, and my pulse raises whenever the doctor checks my pressure, and my pressure is high.
Avatar f tn 2wks tomorrow since surgery and still have tingle in feet and hands,and blood pressure still not going down,was 146/97 today. I just dont understand to be like 97/72 up till i fall asleep for surgery and to wake up this high,and stay that way. Dr says he dont know what to do next,what it could be. I know this cant be good to go on now with this high of blood pressure and nothing done about it. I dont know where to turn to next.
Avatar m tn 4 years ago after the birth of my child I was on 4 different medications. Today none, and my blood pressure is 100/60. All the ideas mammo gave you on exercise, low salt diet and more is what helped me get off medications and get my BP back on track. It isnt good to walk around with uncontrolled blood pressure so for sure get in as soon as you can and get things sorted around with your doctor.
Avatar f tn I have had high blood pressure my whole pregnancy, often as high as 170s/100. I was put on meds and told modified bed rest last week at 35w5d. Ihave not had to do urone collection as when it spikes they make me come back the following 2days for checks and urine samples. If it os still high this week at my 36w5d appt while on the meds i think they will probably put me on full bed rest until i deliver.
Avatar m tn I am a 58 year old female and my question is about high blood pressure and sex. While I understand blood pressure rises during sex I wonder if it is normal to get a sudden onset pounding migraine. This is new the last two times at climax. I was curious and checked my blood pressure the last time and it was 160/88. The headache is sudden and severe and remains for hours after. Is this something I should be concerned about?
Avatar f tn I went in at 35 weeks and 4 days and my blood pressure was high and they gave me meds and did a 24 hour urine test but during the night, even on the meds my blood pressure got to 180/110 and they c sectioned my baby that day.
Avatar m tn my girl friend just went to the doctor, they took her blood pressure and it was 210 over 110. she is 53 and is all ready on procardia. they toke it four times and it stayed that high. they just gave her a scrpit for linsinaprel and sent her home, was that the right thing to do.

Avatar f tn 34weeks and have had normal blood pressure thru this pregnancy but earlier my eyesight went blurry and got headache so went to see m/w and they found protein and confirmed high blood pressure. they sent me home and have got to go back tomoz to recheck everything. anyone else been thru same thing?
529440 tn?1232113705 I am now 28 wks and 2 days and i had my check up today with my ob and found out that my blood pressure is starting to go up. All she said about it was that i dont need to worry about it unless i start spilling protein in my urine or if i start getting headaches that dont go away with medicine. And now i have had a headache for a couple of hours and have taken tylenol about an hour ago and nothing is working. Could it be that my bp is getting higher?
Avatar m tn It is very serious. Your friend does not have extremely high blood pressure, but high enough that if exercise and other natural measures don't get it down, he should be taking blood pressure lowering medication prescribe by his licensed physician. His fasting blood sugar is in the range that the doctor should have diagnosed your friend with diabetes mellitus.
Avatar n tn Folic Acid and magnesium will help to control your BP, but to keep you and baby safe I would plan a physical and explain to the Dr that you want to concieve and want to make sure it is safe to do so. High blood pressure during pregnancy can be fatal to Mommy and Baby, so its better to pay that co-pay now and make sure everything is ok before becoming pregnant.
Avatar n tn I am 71 years old. About 10 weeks ago my blood pressure went suddenly up to183/87 and went to ER. Doctors did CT scan, x-rays, blood work and found every thing normal. They just gave me anti anxiety medication and sent me home. Also me contact a cardiologist. The following week I was quite normal and my bp was never more than 130/80. Following week contacted cardiologist as a precaution. He suggested to take Carvidilol 6.25my/Lisinopril 5mg/Simvastatin 25mg/Aspirin81mg.
6759135 tn?1420070652 High Blood Pressure could turn into PREECLAMPSIA and thats a problem!!!
Avatar f tn I was induced with my daughter at 36 wks due to high blood pressure. Was in labor for 39 hrs and my daughter had to be resuscitated at birth. However, she is perfect and I do not regret being induced. My bp got so high I could have lost her and myself.
Avatar f tn Anyone else have experience with high blood pressure and overly swollen feet? What'd you do to make it go down?
Avatar m tn Do you remember how high your blood pressure got when they induced you? I just checked it again and it's still 139/84 and I still don't feel right..
