Common Questions and Answers about Tekturna and swelling

tekturna

406399 tn?1201884300 The most common side effect observed so far has been diarrhea, which has developed in about 2 percent of those taking Tekturna. In rare cases, those taking Tekturna can develop an allergic reaction that can cause swelling of the face and difficulty breathing. Tekturna should not be used during pregnancy because it can cause severe birth defects and even death in the developing fetus.
Avatar n tn t smoke, do exercise, am thin). My doctor put me on a diuretic, Tekturna and Bystolic, and within a week I had completely lost my sense of taste! Anyone else experienced this? I'm wondering if it's a side effect that will wear off if I just stick it out. The combination seems to be working well to lower my bp and hr but I'm losing weight (a bad thing) and really, really miss food!
483733 tn?1326798446 Have any of you suffered from swelling in your arms and legs but especially in the wrists, hands, ankles and feet (outside of the already very swollen abdomen)? I can actually feel them swelling up and they get oh so uncomfortable. I've not read that this is associated with cysts and fibroids but find it odd that this is happening now.
Avatar n tn Lisinpril can cause a chronic cough and you should stop this medication to see how the cough changes. 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.
489808 tn?1209049408 Hello.....I hope someone can relate with all of this.....cause I am tired of being sick & tired! First off I guess I'd like to give a little background. Starting in October 2007 my family has been hit with some pretty hard blows. 2 deaths, aunt's cancer came back, my grandma (who practically raised me) was diagnosed with breast cancer (she had a mastectomy & is recovering quite well). I had a miscarriage on 3/9 & had a DNC on 3/11.
Avatar m tn I have hypothyroidism. I have recently had 2 episodes with alarming mouth & gum swelling, redness, some tongue swelling & sores. I figure out what these episodes happened and if they are related to my thyroid condition. I do not have any known allergies. I'm 48 yrs old. 3 Drs have said they have seen nothing like it. Histamine injections, antibiotics & in one case liquid steroids were used simultaneously and worked. Healing occurred within 1 and 3 days respectively.
Avatar f tn I had to have a c section because he wasnt head down and the stupid drs didnt find that out until middle of week 39 and kept saying he was in the correct position until i went into the hospital and they checked my fluid level by ultrasound and found that out and i had to have an ultrasound the next morning because they said it was too late and he was too big to turn. I was so disappointed, but its better than laboring and then having to have an emergency c section i guess.
Avatar f tn I am 32 weeks. I have swelling in my hand and feet. I have noticed that my hands hurt so bad I can cry! I tried to write a note for my oldest and could barley write the word "to". The doc checked urine 2weeks ago and was fine. Will this swelling ease up? Is there anything I can take?
Avatar f tn It could be a yeast infection. Some times it doesn't have a smell, and would definitely cause itching and swelling. Good news is it is not harmful to baby and you can cure it on your own if you choose, probiotics and green yogurt for a few days.

1637739 tn?1371688706 At night my hands are numb the entire night and itchy and burn. By morning they are swollen. My hands are still swollen, tingling and numb after getting up.

4133020 tn?1350310377 Balancing, short walks, etc, and speak to a trainer, and a dietitian. Often swelling, and temperature variations (Hot Flashes) can be the result of diet. Drink plenty of WATER!! NO SODA, SWEET TEA, or anything Manufactured! She should stabilize after a few weeks, and the edema will go away. I am however, not a Doc. You MUST HAVE HER UNDERGO A FULL PHYSICAL to rule out any cardiac issues! I hope this helps!
Avatar f tn I had a friend look at it and she said she wasnt sure maybe could be HPV but we looked and pics online and didnt resemble that really at all. I went to the doc and she took a culture to send to the lab which i am still waiting for results she said it could be herpes. I am totally freaking out but at the same time i am doubtful that it is herpes because there really isnt any burning or itching going on. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!!!
Avatar f tn I would recommend that you see a neurosurgeon and get an MRI done of your cervical and thoracic spine. You should also consider trying more advanced physio including aquatherapy.
Avatar n tn It's impossible to speculate as to what might be causing your symptoms without an examination. Are you active duty ... and deployed ?? I was thinking you might see a civilian Dr. and at least rate an exam. I'm not sure how the military works today but if you can't see an outside Physician I'd just keep trying until you get some results. What you describe must have a cause and it needs to be found. Regards ....

Avatar f tn t having any pain or worrisome symptoms other than some neck stiffness. My doc assured me it was edema and normal swelling as the bone and muscles were still healing. My incision is fully healed. Well last night I was feeling more pressure and tightness. When I felt the back of my head, the swelling and bulge was very significant. I feel more uncomfortable than anything with some neck tightness and fatigue. I had a few alcoholic drinks 2 nights ago and wonder if the swelling can be from that?
Avatar f tn I went out last night to a stag and doe for 4 hours and noticed at the end of the night my legs and feel looked like elephant size.I think that's normal???
