My Dr wants to switch me to a new medication - Entresto

@denisern I had almost the same experience. Entresto was the first med tried but after 10 days it was stopped and put on Lisenphril and soon took me off of that. Now, I am on Amiodarone with side effects also. Like you, I am breathless with very little activity and fatigued. I do not get much done around the house but laundry. We eat out two meals a day. I am frustrated like you yet the meds I take lower my already low BP which does not help. Also, I am dizzy and my balance is not so great. Hope you do not have all the side effects I do. I try to do a little more each day but sometimes this is hard. I hope you find some answers that will help. Please keep me informed of your progress. KLH

@KLH that sound just like what I am going through! So frustrating because before we started this 2nd trail I was walking an average of 7,000 steps a day, now I can hardly get out the door, I talked to my HF nurse and she ha not gotten back to me but said to take just 1/2 of the lowest dose until she talks to the Dr and that we would probably abandon the Entresto again, my Cardiologist does want me on Spirolactone if we quit the Entresto, Thank you for letting me know I'm not the only one! By the way I have found a grocery delivery service with recipes that are easy & 20 min or less to fix, they are heart healthy & taste good! I also got a robot vacumm that helps keep my floors clean. Keep me up to date with how you are doing.
