I'm a healthy 52 year old female, in full menopause. I am 5'8 and 138lbs. I do not smoke or drink. I am physically very active and I am considered normal weight. I never had high BP or chest pains. This all started about a week or so ago. I had some sinus issues and went to my allergist. He started me on the antibiotic levaquin. After one pill, I got very dizzy, chest pains, shortness of breath and my throat felt like it was closing. I went immediately to the ER and was dx'd as having an allergy reaction to the drug . During the next 5 days I just wasn't feel right, and felt like my blood pressure was going up and up, had bouts of rapid heart beats, skipping, fluttering. By that weekend I was feeling bad again, and went to the ER and my blood pressure was very high. (176/80) All tests were again fine, EKG, blood work, chest xray, but this time they wanted me to spend the night . They had also given me Nitro G in the ER and I had a horrible headache for 2 full days, nausea , dizziness. My doctor did a full nuclear scan, with stress test and then another scan. They found nothing So I stayed home for two days and rested . BP was average 135/70. So doctor puts me on BP med "amlodipine besylate" 5mg. I took my first pill this morning... morning BP was 138/75, took the pill and it went down to 116/75. As the day went on, I was doing ok and then around noon my blood pressure went way up ... pounding headache, two very sharp chest pains, I felt like I was vibrating all over. Checked my BP it was 160/100... Call the doctor's office and headed over there and they're telling me I am having anxiety attack. I dont' believe that. I was FINE up until last week and now all heck is happening. So they think maybe the BP meds are too high and want me to cut the dose. I lost another half day of work because I am so frazzled I'm worn out. What the heck is going on ?
