After being on Diovan hct 160/25 for about two years I developed a severe stiffness in my neck, a piercing center chest pain when I coughed and so much muscle/joint pain I could barely get out of bed in the morning. Don't know if it is a result of Diovan, but this is my only med. Finally (after a year) I spent six months undergoing tests and consults with one doctor who finaly gave up. A second doctor diagnosed fibromyalgia and prescribed diclofenac, which somewhat controls the neck stiffness and pain. Now, a year after the fibromyalgia diagnosis I am learning Diovan might be at fault but don't know what to do next. Any suggestions welcome!...

About six months ago I was perscibed 80mg of Diovan for high blood presure. It did not bring my blood presure down, so the medication was increased to 160mg a day. Soon after I took the higher dose, I had heart palputations,a racing heart beat,severe headaches,ringing in my ears. And still, my blood presure was high. This medicine went in the trash. After two week of not taking Dovan, my ears are still ringing.
