Hello, I was on lisinopril for the last 1.5 years. I developed some tinnitus during that time and wasn’t sure if it was medication induced or just environmental. My doctor agreed to try telmisartan as a replacement to see if it improved. I’ve been taking it for a week and a half now and since day one I’ve had this nagging lower back pain. I’m an active individual, strength train 5 times per week and walk frequently. I didn’t do anything around the time of the pain occurrence to explain this. I see back pain listed as a rare side effect. It’s not excruciating but is persistent and annoying. Has anyone else experienced this?

For anyone with experience with the Prodigio pro, would you say it could make for a good hiking shoe? Or would you avoid it for any reason?

Edit: currently I use the Altra lone peak 9+ but want a bit more cushion underfoot as the Altra’s tend to start hurting the bottom of my feet after a couple miles.

I’m really interested in the Norda 005. Ideally I would like it to be a hybrid that I use for anything. My biggest fear is outsole durability with road use. Reading reviews leads me to believe it would be a great shoe for that use with the potential caveat of outsole durability. Anyone have a pair that they’ve used for this? How has it held up?
