What Causes Facial Numbness While On Candesartan?
Have recently been diagnosed with high blood pressure and migraines. Taking meds for 4 weeks now (cadasarten). Since Feb 15th I ve had pressure in my ears, facial numbness and popping sounds in my ears when I lay down (this started before the meds). I ve had a brain MRI, sinus and neck xray, blood tests show inflammation (15). Could I possibly also have a Eustachian tube problem?
