high blood pressure
"I have taken hydrochlorothiazide for a number of years and felt that it helped lower my BP but recently began feeling more fatigued so my doctor raised my dose to 50mg.  I have had severe rashes and edema ever since.  She is now running test to see if I have developed Lupus.  I had just 3 months ago been diagnosed with fibromialgia.  I am in severe pain, have large rashes on both legs that itches ALL the time and my feet and legs are so swollen that I can hardly walk especially in the morning and late evening. She took me off HCTZ 5 days ago until the results of test comes back. I am also taking 240 mg of Diltiazem Hcl and 20 mg of Altace.  I need help and answers fast. Have never been so sick."
