As I said it took a long time trying different pills and different combinations to get it right. I did try to get them to cut back on one as I was fairly sure it was that was giving me painful shoulders, had to go back to back to it. Came home from work feeling really bad and blood pressure was real high. But as long as I take the pills seems okay, i have a blood test and check up every 6 months or so. Cheers Arry Lucky you had a medical mate. I've read that they call it the silent killer. If we didn't have a BP monitor at home. I wouldn't of knew I had high BP.

What was your BP readings before you started on the medication I hardly drink alcohol. But smoke maybe 25/30 A day. And egg and soldiers won't be the same without salt.. I don't really add salt to wanting apart from the above. But lots of food has it added all ready So hard to cut it out I think. I just looked up the stats king. Smoking kills more people than alcohol, aids, murders, car accidents and drugs COMBINED. How accurate that study is I don't know, but we did a bit of a study on smoking, drinking, drugs and health etc, when I did a college course in 2009-2011. And our results were more towards those findings Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jukel123 6,953 Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 There's good evidence which shows taking Ramipril at night is best rather than in the morning. Same with Lisinopril which is similar.You might get a cough but its just a harmless side effect. Your cock might not get as hard cos as well. Been there got the t shirt lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Luckily I've never smoked in my life. But my mrs did til a couple of years back, not alot, but every time she went to the doc's, which is fairly regular as she was born with heart problems, they kept telling her to stop smoking above all else. As soon as she did everything started improving. Good luck with it for you and the mrs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
