Mystery solved! A pharmacy gave me the wrong meds I've been taking the wrong meds for a week!

2. Yikes! That's a scary screwup!

Hope you end up fine!

As a trained engineer, I know that any human process has a non-zero error rate, and I've frankly been amazed my pharmacy gets it right as often as they do. You hear about them getting pricing and insurance and coupon problems all the time, but they're usually solid on getting the actual meds and counts right. If there's a problem it's usually the doctor who wrote the scrip wrong.

But yowza, doubling up on bp meds can be a problem. I once accidentally mixed two of those and my bp fell so much I thought I was going to die. I went through a cycle of committing and passing out repeatedly until one of them wore off. A very unpleasant few hours.

Hope you make it through ok and the pharmacy makes it up to you somehow!
