My stomach has bothered me ever since I have been on Blood Pressure Meds. for the past 2 years. It happens 2-3 times a week. This morning was the worst. Last night my g/f & I went out to dinner at 9:30 P.M. or so. I had a spicey pasta dish with alfredo, chicken & shrimp. I also had 2 beers. Went to sleep at 11 & woke up at 6:30 A.M. feeling like complete junk. I took the 100 MGS of Atenolol & 5/20 of Lotrel at 7:30 A.M. that morning. I never had these problems before the meds., but things like Taco Bell+ always upset my stomach usually right away. Do you guys think that the meds. are making this worse???? I thought that there was no way that I would be able to go to work today, but after going to the bathroom things gradually got better. I am tired of my stomach bothering me in the morning. I know that if I just had a couple of beers that it wouldn't effect me. I don't get it. My stomach always growls & churns a lot in the morning when this happens. Please advise.
