Doc says my headaches are being caused by the ziac

ttwarrior1 · 10-14-2006, 05:40 PM

he first said it was because of the high blood pressure, now its down he says its the ziac bisopoporol.

Now he is prescribing me verapamil to take along with ziac for bp and headache. I havent gotten it yet though. I will get it tommorrow i guess but concerned about taking 2 bp meds now that its down.

My headache is next to my ears on my face and temples and feels like my head is gonna explode.

He says my ears are fine so i'll accept that for now. I do have sinus trouble at times but these headaches are new.

I was even accused of faking them by my mom and that i enjoyed being sick and playing it up.

Your headaches sound like mine...the temple and down to my ears and lots of pain....I usually get them in the middle of the night. I am taking Inderol 4omg daily and Diovan320mg daily.....

I hope you have some success getting rid of the headaches....mine are coming more often...about 6 bad ones each month....

good luck

ttwarrior,

When you get the verapamil take JUST the verapamil for a week and see if the headaches go away.

If the ziac causes daily headaches all day long you CANNOT continue to take it no matter WHAT your doctor says.

There are MANY different drugs for treating high blood pressure. When one causes a serious side effect, the appropriate response is to replace it NOT add to it.
