What Causes Chest Pain And Shoulder Numbness After Taking Spironolactone?
I have been trying to conceive for years but has been very difficult. I have been to multiple doctors but there was no reason why it was not working for us to get pregnant.. I m 26 ..120lbs..and healthy.. I found out that I have pcos which was causing hair loss and also unwanted hair everywhere else went to the specialist and they put me on spironolactone .. anyway finally I got pregnant in the beginning of the year but lost it when I was 6 weeks in December. .. now recently I found out I was pregnant in march and just miscarried again.. before both the pregnancies I started having heart Pains and shoulder numbness I thought it was due to the medication they prescribed me so I stopped by my choice. . 3 months later of no medicine and the pains and numbness got worse and was experiencing cramps ...went to the e.r and this was when I was pregnant for the second time anyway they did blood work and found out my potassium was low so they gave me a one time medication and made sure to follow up the following Monday. My level was at 3 it s now 4 in the normal range... my ? Is could that have caused Me to miscarry two times in a row?
