What Are The Symptoms Such As Head Pressure, Memory Loss, And Numbness In Face For And Having High BP?
symptoms are head pressure , memory loss , right side facial numbness , difficulty with communication , and trouble with daily executive functions . possible lithium toxicity over a year ago, only taken for 1 month , medication free now but not myself. I am a college graduate who was working up until I went to see my doctor for high blood pressure , prescribed paxil for mild stress/anxiety , only took for 2 days instant bad reaction . also went on Tenormin for bp , but discontinued as well . Unable to sleep they prescribed trazadone , which caused even more trouble so discontinued. Then came down with pneumonia given 40 mg prenasone w taper then 60 mg pred. =psychosisga

Hi
it is not because of lithium taken 1 year back As your symptoms are vague and every drug produce unwanted symptoms
It will be good to contact a multi speciality hospital and get proper check up anf treatment
take care
