Blood Pressure Medicine       08/01/08 09:34 AM Edit Reply Quote CathyF Reged: 05/21/08 Posts: 15 Last spring before I knew I had IBS, I got high blood pressure and irregular heartbeat. I took Diovan and it helps control my blood pressure. Later in Sept, my bowel started to get worst every week. I went to see digestive health center and they said I have IBS-A. I started my own experiment with peppermint oil, Digestive Advantage, benefiber, etc. I felt burping I thought it was from DA. One day I forgot to take blood pressure medicine and took it. I felt burping over and over. The next day I got diahrrea. I stopped taking Diovan. It went well. I still have painful BM every week (sometime three days in a row with loose stools) because I ate my favorite foods like pizza. I rarely eat veggies and fruits. Im naughty! Now I started to have irregular heartbeat and soon I will need to take blood pressure medicine. Does anyone have experience taking BP meds? It's pretty frustrating when taking med that might cause gas or diahrrea. cathy Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
