Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I know you don t know me. I am RN BSN been in health care for 30 years. My BP is highly part of my family HX. Iam going to a group of heart surgeon s after I have had many adverse reactions to many medications. I have been on Cozaar and Coreg for about 5 months. We just up the Coreg to 25mg BID. BP was running 150/99. My question is today got stomach pain and have been experiencing muscle pain, leg & back pain and tiredness. I have had an MRI to rule out and L5 damage. I do have S1 damage confirmed by a EMG. I have not been able to take and cholesterol lowering drugs big side effects. Since my recent MRI did not show any current damage. Do you think the Cozaar is giving me the side effects of my muscle pain. I also have cresting, skin on the edge of my ears. Which I have gotten before from another BP med.
