Went to see cardiologist today. She said she won't be signing off for my surgery until after she has done an ultrasound on my heart. She put me on a BP pill for my BP and for swelling. This all has me scared. I need to take the medicine to get my BP under control but scared of all the scary side effects that are possible. I was put on triamterene-hctz. Has anyone been on this? Pros/cons? Safe??

I understand how scary it can be to start taking a new medication, especially when it comes to potential side effects. I haven't personally taken triamterene-hctz, but I know it's a common medication prescribed for high blood pressure and swelling. It's always best to follow your doctor's advice and take the medication as prescribed. As for cutting costs on medication, I recently discovered an amoxicillin coupon 2023 that has helped me save some money. It's always a relief to find ways to save on healthcare expenses. Anyway, hope everything goes well with you!
