I switched to Telmisartan/Amlodopine 80-5mg one week after running a Marathon last year
I started having terrible back/hip pain. It heals and gets worse. The pain was never at the same place. I was also felt bloated all the time. I always thought it was my race and went back to activity too soon. Last week, I looked at the side effects of Telmisartan and asked my primary to switch to lisnopril/hctz which I took for many years, switched to telmisartan/amlodpine as I was having occasional dry cough ( not that bad to tbh)
One week now on lisnopril/hctz. I don't feel bloated and hip pain is gone, but my back is not fully normal. I can see recovery tho. I am going to see one more month before getting MRI or any spine specialist.
Has anyone had any backpain with meds? how long it took to be normal?
