View 13 RepliesLipitor Side Effects - Dementia
My husband has been taking lipitor for about 10 years. About a year & a half ago he started showing signs of what I thought was dementia until I researched it online. I couldn't believe my eyes....he was a poster boy for the side effects of lipitor! I contacted our doctor about it but he wouldn't hear of him trying to quit taking it. I know we don't have to take the meds that doctors prescribe but they're supposed to be the experts & have our best interests at heart but I'm so worried that my husband will get worse.
View 4 RepliesLipitor Side Effects - Constantly Tired
Since I got diagnosed with high cholesterol last year and was prescribed Lipitor it seems my health is getting worse and I am constantly tired. I sleep 8 to 10 hours and yet feel as though I have not slept. My doctor thinks it is my body adjusting to my new meds and told me to quit smoking and reduce caffeine. So I still feel so tired.
View 1 RepliesLipitor Side Effects - Horrible Muscle Tiredness And Aches
I know that it's known that lipitor has the side-effect of muscle tiredness and aches. Has anyone else have to deal with this? Man it's off the hook. I almost am paralyzed fro, lipitor. This horrible and I would like to talk to someone who's been through it. This is a very under-rated affliction IMO. I've been tested and it doesn't look like I have the Rabadolosis<sp? That spelling isn't even close. I was very scared before I realized what was causing this severe problem.. Now I know that lipitor has helped a lot of people, it brought my cholesterol down a bunch very quickly. Frankly i would rather have high cholesterol. I did have a stroke at the end of November, small, deep in the cerebellum. Hence the lipitor.

View 14 RepliesBreathless :: Side Effect Of Lipitor OR Lisinopril(ACE) OR Anxiety?
I had a heart attack in mid October due to a congenital enlarged artery. The stent was unsuccessful and I lost 10-15% of my heart. My EF is around 46/48 and the doctor has never mentioned heart failure, but I know I need to do all I can to try to prevent that from happening.
Anyway I am on metoprolol tartrate (beta) 12.5 twice a day, plavix, aspirin, lipitor, and in December the dr put me on a very low dose of lisinopril (Ace) 5 mg.
Lately my back has been aching as the day goes on and I feel like I can't take a deep breath. Let me clarify, when I sleep and when I first wake up I feel good and normal. But as the day goes on I start to get some muscle aches and my breathing seems weird. I don't feel like I'm about to suffocate and I can breath normally fine, but it's like I feel the need every few minutes to take a big deep breath and when I try I can't totally get a full really deep breath like I used to.
Could this be the lipitor or the lisinopril or maybe it's anxiety and it's all in my head because sometimes I don't even notice it. I take the lipitor and the lisinopril at bedtime and sleep well and wake up feeling well, this usually happens about mid-day or so.

View 14 RepliesDepression :: Can't Escape The Pain - Heart Physically Hurts
I really am on a low at the moment and really looking for an easy way out as I can't take the pain anymore. My heart physically hurts and I feel like I am pushing everyone away who is trying to help me. I have never felt loneliness like it and although it really gets me down, I don't want anyone's company (does that make sense)
I am on anti-depressants and have been for many years. The doctors tells me it will pass but it never does. A smile that hides a thousand sorrows and i feel like I'm drowning while everyone around me is living their life.
Do I Have Post-Traumatic Stress? Tired, Mentally And Emotionally Drained
I feel like I'm on the outside of everything. I don't feel much of anything, most of the time, and I always just want to be alone because I feel I have to pretend in front of other people. I've been through awful things during my life, the most recent being the loss of two beloved pets within 4 months of each other. Yes, I consider their passing to be awful. I've been through cancer, abuse, abandonment, etc. My earliest memory is witnessing my mother being beaten by my father.
I'm not a miserable, unhappy person, normally. Lately, I just haven't been able to feel or care about much. I'm tired. Mentally and emotionally drained. I have zero energy for other people, which saddens me deeply. Often, all I want is to be left alone to stare at the wall or bury myself under the covers.
Maybe it's depression, but the reason I suspect some kind of PTSD is because my brain feels as though there's a block that prevents me from processing any new experiences. I don't know how to explain it...it's like wanting to run from the room, covering my ears with my hands to keep from hearing any bad news or having to deal with anything unpleasant.
Menstruation :: Physical Symptoms Of Anxiety Without Feeling Mentally Anxious?
So I know my anxiety increases a lot prior to my period, but is it normal to experience physical symptoms of anxiety without feeling mentally anxious? I guess you can. I posted about digestive problems so that appeared without me actually feeling anxious. It's just unnerving. Yesterday was normal, today I woke up with diarrhea and the shaky feeling inside me. Tonight I feel tingling in my arm and tightness in my shoulders and head. But I don't "feel" anxious. My period is probably just a few days away. This is so hard to deal with!
I feel like this is another women's issue that no one talks about. I had no idea it could go on for so long and cause such a laundry list of symptoms. Why isn't there more discussion about it? It's like when I went through infertility. Another taboo women's topic.
Ramipril :: Side Effects
I am a 47 year old male (right weight for height) and reasonably fit running three times a week who has recently had to visit the doctor (first time in years) for severe neck pain caused by strenuous gardening work -so called leisure.
However my blood pressure was checked over the past few weeks and has found to be continuously very high ranging 190/115 to 150/90. My GP has decided to put me on ramipril starting with 2.5mg increasing to 5 mg and then 10mg over six weeks. On reading the comments about side effects I am really concerned which has now possibly increased my blood pressure further - really concerned on what to do, should I get a second opinion through my private medical before starting this treatment?

View 4 RepliesOxytetracycline Bad Side Effects
I used the tablets for 5 months and a bit, should be taking it for 6 months but i decide to give into not taking them due to really bad side effects.
When i started, i took 2 TWICE a day for 4 months but, rashes appeared on my cheeks, completely red and skin dried also on my nose. I couldn't bear the suffering, i applied creams like E45 (made things worse for me) then i switched to sudocrem, applying it to my face where the rashes were. this seemed to help stop the rash from getting any worse. I went to see the doctor who said i should cut down on the tabs to 1 Twice a day so i finally started to heal from the rashes. I carried on using the tabs this way until the rashes appeared on my nose again, it was really bad.
To those who suffer from Eczema, be warned as this course may effect it, making it really bad. This is the reason why i have to quit from this 6 month course (am finishing on 5 and a bit months) As for acne, it helped clear it up nicely even old scars until a point where my skin could heal no further ( i stayed the same after the 3rd month) so hopefully, changes are permanent and my side effects will go away from stopping this course.
Sexual Health Men :: Unwanted Erections Every Time I Physically Touch Girlfriend
I keep getting an unwanted erection every time I physically touch my best friend. She's female, and I used to have the same trouble in the past. The problem is that I keep getting them only with her. And it's not only when touching her, but also sometimes when we're just texting to see how each other is doing. I know this is more of a psychological question, but it keeps bugging me to face this situation, since we're just friends and we see each other as brother and sister. I just have to add that I'm a 22 year male virgin.
