What Causes Body Pain While On Bumetanide And Enalapril?

Hi, I have multi ASD (holes in the heart) but have been living a normal life without medication until 2 years ago when I was put on warfarin. I had one hole closed when I was 15 yrs old (now 50yrs old) and have been told I need open heart surgery again after a failed attempt to close the holes using Transcatheter Occluder. I visited one consultant who told me I just needed the holes closing and I will be fine, two days after I was put on various tablets by another consultant and I feel awful, worse than without the tablets (Bumetanide & Enalapril). I feel like I have a cold coming on all the time, aches etc. Any help, and which consultant is right ?
