I am a 62 year old female with slightly high blood pressure. I take amlodipine 5 mg and also lisinopril 20 mg. I see my cardiologist every 6 months with no problems.I was diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection about 6 weeks ago. I was given antibiotics and steroids. I am still a little short of breath and have no energy and I have also put on some weight in the last few months.
