lightheaded feeling - sick and tired in one !

lightheaded feeling - sick and tired in one !

Im back again with another stupid problem from b.p medications im on !!
here goes !  right around 3pm daily for the past 4days in row - I get very lightheaded and tired and sick puke feeling!
call me up-chuck!  - but I dont toss my cookies !  its off and on for about 2 hours - drives me nuts !! as I get some pannic attacks along with the waves !  im always at work , working my hump off !  Im on verapamil and maxzide daily
250mg verap -and 25mg max !  ok I eat normal 2 times a day and have a snack inbetween !  however I get pounded
by this symptom daily now !!   I had this happen with a beta blocker and diovan over a year ago !  here it is again
ok my b.p readings are pretty normal - (for me ) 134- 93 . I think my blood sugar drops on me due to the meds.
or goes up ! im not sure , with beta blocker it dropped.  the only way to stop it was to get off the med slow..
and was put on this **** drug !  was ok for about 5 months now .. but here we again !!  the joys of b.p meds..
and the wonderfull side effects !  

has anyone had this symptom before ?  or am I the lone dog - looking at the clouds ?  

im finding, every darn single b.p med I take - from beta blockers to ccb's and ace inhibbitors and diovan type drugs
I can only tollerate for a short time !  then have to get off them , as due to adverse problems they cause me !

well there you go !   match this one , would you !   loling

posting a reply back to me !  I tryed to change over to natural b.p med
for the 6th time - well im fnished now , as it didnt work ! got me sick
and caused the worst ever trapped gas problems at night !  nothing like wakeing up with gas pains and pushing gas on your chest !  not a good deal !!  I ended up taking a b.p pill chemical brand to get the b.p down
and also took gas x  pills to get rid of the gas inside me pushing !  

well thats it for me -im done with natural bp meds  they dont work !
simple as that !!  will deal with the side effects and problems from the normal b.p pills doctor gave me !!  darn it !!  

well its back to the drawing board -  or behind the 8ball ..
damed if I do and damed if I dont !  no happy ending here ..

Yep, medications are no fun. Some of them are easy to take (gosh, why can't I think of one right now LOL) but many are hard on the body. Sounds like your body really rebels against them. But your body is rebelling against the world and you're just trying to tame it like a wild bronco. Those "natural" meds are not always safe either. Don't give up. What would we do here without our "boogie?"

Thank you Ireneo !  for your kind words of understanding.  Yes I cant take much of anything anymore.  seems Im allergic or my body rejects everything ?  yep my body is a Rebel thats for sure !  it hates all types of medications (drugs)  ?

I agree with you that not all Natural meds are safe, as iv been sick now 3times from them
but to be honest, Iv been sick more times on b.p meds than Natural ones !  oh well..

but for now im throwing in the towel on Natural meds - as iv spent alot of money $$$ on
natural meds that dont work !  so its back to the normal chemical brands of b.p meds.
as they at least work and keep the b.p down to somewhat normal levels.
I guess I have to live with the side effects !    

on a good note : Im seeing a new Doctor that is not conected to my group insurance
plan .. its outside of any Insurance deal.   so I pay out of pocket !  as its my last ditch effort to find a good safe careing Doctor !   that will hopefully give me a new medication
that iv never tryed before.   and will test me first for allergic reactions ,so on !!

as I know the Insurance plan Doctors are somewhat limited and under rules of the insurance companys !   as to what they can do and cant do .. and give for medications

im only throwing the towel in on the natural b.p meds ( as they dont work )  
booger is still around ( Thank God)  but its been one wild ride - and came close to buying a ticket out , a few times !    no thanks to poor healthcare and Doctors who dont care or didnt care !   but thats in the past , and another story I dont want to get into ..

but again ,I thank you for input and kind words to me !  
take care and be safe all the best !
