I've just spent the last 2 days in and out of the E R I've been taking Lisinopril 5 mg for blood pressure,  its a generic brand. I have not had any issues with this medication for the last 3 yrs when i got my new supply for 30 days a week ago i started getting burning in my left arm to my hand..
i thought that burning was from the shock i was getting from my dryer when i plugged it in. My timer is out on the dryer  thats how i turn it on and shut it off, thought maybe i was damaging my nerves , But its not the case now. The doctor in the E R said i have blocked arteries in my kidneys..wth i thought...how does one get blocked arteries in their kidneys..well he said the same way i got blocked arteries in my heart,,uuumm ok. I look like a camel from all the swelling in my arms both left and right from the hit and miss with the I V's..My blood pressure was 200 / 104..my heart was pounding sick to my stomach for 2 days , still is a little...Told me something to day i have never heard blocked arteries in the kidneys causes blood pressure medicine to have adverse reactions.do the opposite than what its suppose to do. Its not over. more mri's more ultra sounds. God, this mean i better make out my WILL now...here we go again..every time i eat my heart pounds  hard, not just carbs, its everything i eat.well i hope i make it through this one.. ..Still wish I'd never had Wls..Peace\/ Wendy

Good Luck!  I hope the doctors are able to help get your blood pressure under control soon.  It sounds super scary, I wish you all the best!
