How Can Acid Reflux And High Blood Pressure Be Treated?
I have acid reflux and high blood pressure. I m on meds for both. I have a bad dry cough, can t sleep and bad blurred vision in the last year. I just found out I have cataracts. One from old age and one that progresses quickly and has potential side affects like fast heart beats. Can high blood meds cause cataracts? Two months ago I had a real bad acid reflux attack that burnt my vocal cords and went into my lungs. They gave me antibiotics for protentical phenomenon and stronger anti acid drugs. I m 65 ,weigh 115 ,I m working in my own business for 32 years there is some stress from my work. Any advice would be great thanks
