High Blood Pressure
"I&#039;m a 27-year-old male with hypertension (yes, a bit young, but it runs in the family). At first, Lisinopril was a God send. We were seeing systolic pressure in the high 120s and diastolic pressure in the 70s (I&#039;ve had readings as high as 165 over 95). I didn&#039;t develop the dreaded &quot;ACE inhibitor cough.&quot; Overtime, however, lisinopril caused me to feel fatigued 24/7. I&#039;m depressed (despite 40mg Prozac per day and no history of major depressive disorder or triggers) and feel 50 years older than I should be.

Medications affect different people in so many different ways. I&#039;ll continue on my quest to find the blood pressure  medicine that works for me (...with a second opinion from a cardiologist)."
