With TBI traumatic brain injury, I can’t remember if my nephrologist or cardiologist prescribed my carvedilol and Amlodipine, Benecar, etc. For Hypertention. I really am fearful taking these meds but my BP is quite high about 170/85. It’s the 170 mainly. I find my kidney numbers do better when I eat less protein. I am stage 3 about 50 in my egfr. I am a 72 year female. My a fib causes tachycardia fast heart beat and at times bradycardia slow and at times may skip. Drs don’t tell me much, but that’s what I feel in my own body. I have worked with drs and in hospitals all my life, think I’ve seen too much so I’m not as inclined to have much faith in them. My general practitioner feels I don’t need anyone but him. I could be dying and he would say I’m fine. My lab tests are ordered by my kidney dr and my diabetic dr who I only see once a year. I just found out my cardiologist after going to him for several years doesn’t have any lab reports on me. I’ve heard of laid back but maybe he is taking a nap. Lol 😂
