Question: Sir, I am XXXX- a two-times
kidney transplanted patient from Kolkata,India. The last transplant was done 9 years ago. I am on the following medication now-
1)
Neoral liquid-0.25ml two times a day
2)Siromus 2mg once a day
3)
wysolone 5mg once a day
4)Semiglynase 2.5mg once a day
5)Glyciphase 500mg (1/2-1/2)
6)
Thyronorm 50mg once a day
7)Osteofos 10mg once day
and the problematic part i.e
high BP for which i was taking 4 kinds of medicine as follows:-
8)Nicardia(R) 20mg(6am-2pm-10pm)
9)S.Numlo 2.5mg (11am-11pm)
10)Arkamin(9am-5pm-9am)
11)Betaloc 50mg(9am-9pm)
I was continuing the combination for last 9 years and was quite well i.e everything was under control.
But recently my legs started to swell while in a standing position for 30 mins or more. The swelling is more in my right leg (my
transplantation is on the left side) than the left. It starts from the toe and grows upwords as time passes.
My local doctor was telling that it is due to the medicine "S. Numlo" and so he replaced it by "
Minipress XL". But it didn't suit me(catched by all its side effects).So he told me to go back to "S.Numlo".
I know that there may be 100-s of reasons for leg-swelling but if it is diagnosed that it is due to the BP medicine i am taking, then if i continue with that-will it affect my kidney condition in future?
With Regards,
XXXX XXXXXXX
