What the heck is going on with this medication?! NEVER have I had to deal with GAS from a high blood pressure medication! But, the most ANNOYING side effect from this medication is perspiration! Wait. Wrong. I shouldn't label it 'PERSPIRATION'. That is too gentle a word for it. And just MENTIONING the word 'SWEAT' is too minor a way to handle this catastrophe of facial and neck sweat.

What the heck is going on with this medication?! NEVER have I had to deal with GAS from a high blood pressure medication! But, the most ANNOYING side effect from this medication is perspiration! Wait. Wrong. I shouldn't label it 'PERSPIRATION'. That is too gentle a word for it. And just MENTIONING the word 'SWEAT' is too minor a way to handle this catastrophe of facial and neck sweat. 'MAJOR TRIBUTARIES OF SWEAT FORMING ALL OVER MY FACE AND NECK, DUE TO MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF SWEAT EMITTING FROM THE PORES OF MY OVER-WORKED AND FREAKED-OUT SKIN.' is a much more realistic way of putting it. I have never before experienced such bodily mayhem from such a teensy, tiny pill in my entire life! I had to carry around a washcloth from my linen closet just to be prepared to wipe away all the sweat from my face and neck! There has GOT to be a medical word in one of your medical encyclopedia's that can adequately describe what I experienced this evening, at the 'hands???' of this evil pill! This is one of those pills you innocently ingest at the instruction of your physician -- only to be left wondering halfway through the ride of the pill that you're wanting to shout to the world, "Let me off this ride!!! Please! I'll even pay you money if you point me to the exit!" -- does my physician hate me or something?

Diziness, Heart feels as if it is swelling or tightning up causing breathing difficulty. Also causes pulse to race to the point that I am afraid that I am going to pass out. I have also gained weight on this drug, am tired, short of breath and have a cough that is ongoing. I feel that I do need to get the VA to change this medication.
