Do Metoprolol Tartrate, Lisinopril And Paxil Cause Severe Fatigue?

I was prescribed this med and it made me feel tired all the time and I was moving around like an elderly person and felt sick a lot. I stopped taking because I told my Dr that my regular Med was doing the job but my BP would be elevated each time I dad to drive 2 hr s thru traffic to make my appointment. I have been sickly every since I first was prescribed the Med s and I no longer take it but i m still sickly and weak. I m wondering if the Med s that I took is making me feel this way ? metoprolol tartrate 50 mg , 1/2 tab per day. I take one hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg a day, 1/2 tab a day 40 mg Lisinopril and one 30 mg Paxil HCL per day also. 3 weeks ago a growth of some type came out of me in a bowel movement that appeared to have grown inside me filled with dark blood as if it had been attached inside of me and was cut from inside by surgery and it was too large for me to have passed it with no pain, just lots of blood when I wiped myself. I am getting prepped to go in for a colostomy because I have not had a one for nearly 10 yr s.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Reviewing your history it seems that the feeling of weakness and tiredness all the time might be due to electrolyte imbalance specifically hypokalemia ( low potassium level) due to the drug combination that you are taking for hypertension. Secondly it can be due to the amount of blood loss that you had due to your bowel growth making you anemic.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
