What Causes Headache, Acid Reflux And Coughing Post Surgery?
I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and had the complete thyroid removed Nov.11th,2014. I am currently taking 200mcg of Synthyroid a day in the morning. I am also on Irbesartan/HCTZ 300/12.5 one tablet in the morning and Veraparmil 360mg at bedtime. I have gerd so I take two Nexium a day 22mg each one in the morning and one in the evening. I have had very few good days since my surgery. Very sick especially most nights. Terrible headaches which I have never had before, acid reflux with coughing and choking.
Could it be the combination of these medications is causing this? Thank you so very much for your help.
