Hi,

I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concern.

The difficulty in breathing and shortness of breathe while taking lisinopril and verapamil to control your high blood pressure should be further investigated to rule out cardiovascular event.

Immediate consultation with cardiologist is highly recommended together with a complete cardiac check up (ECG, echocardiogram, stress test).

Wish fast recovery.
