Are Cramps In The Legs, Torso And Face While On Lisinopril And Felodipine Symptoms Of A Stroke?
I have been experiencing nighttime body cramps in my legs and torso. I have occasional facial cramps and am taking Lisenopril, Felodipin for high blood pressure. I have spinal stenosis and arthritis. I am 70 years of age. I am concerned that I have been experiencing symptoms of stroke.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Pain in the legs or tingling sensation may not be due to stroke it may be due to hypocalcemia or anemia or allergic reaction to the drugs etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. please consult your physician he will examine and check blood pressure and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
