bilateral achilles tendinitis started after treatment with atorvastatin. That was discontinued with almost total symptom relief. Switched back to pravastatin and still have some tendinitis symptoms. There was no acute ankle or tendon injury. have been prescribed nasal sprays, saline rinses, antihistamine/decongestants, etc. Also tea tree oil....nothing working Not sure why I'm itching so bad. It just started about 2 weeks ago and haven't started any new medicine around the same time. Could my medicines be interacting with each other?
Recently when doing yard work (raking, splitting logs) or riding my bicycle I have experienced increased shortness of breath or fatigue. Began taking 10 mg of pravastatin in February of 2013. By the end of March, I had the first blister on my right foot and was shocked at how large it was and how slowly I recovered. I had to drain the blister because it kept getting larger. It was about the size of a golf ball. I could not wear shoes and took anti-inflammatories for the pain. about two weeks later, I got a second blister. This one was on the left foot. It was not as big and went away a little faster. Less than a week later, I got a third blister, this time on the right foot. It was much larger than the others - about the size of a lemon - and even with draining it several times a day, it spread. I went to a dermatologist who said it was from friction. The third blister filled with blood and fluid and was so painful, I could not rest my foot on a bedsheet without intense pain. I could not walk or wear shoes. I found that blisters were mentioned as a less frequently found side effect of pravastatin when I refilled the prescription yesterday. I have been off the drug for only one day. The blisters are deep, painful, debilitating, embarrassing and frightening. They left scars on my feet. Post a new comment OR Read more comments Recent related drug checks on eHealthMe:
