Hello. I Have Been Taking Spiranolactone For 3.5 Years Because
Hello. I have been taking Spiranolactone for 3.5 years because of unexplained edema. My doctors could never find a cause. Blood pressure has always remained low. Blood tests do not show heart, kidney ,liver disease or diabetes. My eyesight became really bad starting at 4our. I am noworking 46. Recently my right eye is excessively blurry and I was given glass prescriptions for reading. Eyes are constantly infected and stuck together when I awake. I suddenly have Nystgmus. I read this medicine has given similar side effects to many women. I hAve stopped the medicine cold turkey 3 to 4 days ago. I began taking a tincture of dandelion extrace in its place one day after. I have been to Urgent Care and an Opthamologist. Do you have any thoughts or advice? My legs feel tired and sore and I am worried about an electrolyte embalance. But don't want to the Spiranolactone anymore if I can help it. Is it better to come off other slowly-? Could theasily tincture hurt me at this point ?
