Hi,
It seems to me that nifedipine is not the immediate choice of treatment, compared to Nitro and diltiazem, I have only heard of it fairly recently.
Is there any point using it if I have already tried diltiazem? I ask because they're both channel blockers.
Also, anyone know if it's available in UK? No doctor I've seen so far has mentioned it...
I used diltiazem for 6 weeks before with no results. Switched to nitro for a good 3-4 months after that. My CRS then told me I should have used diltiazem for at least 12 weeks to see if it works so I tried it again, but now it caused me incredible swelling and lot of pain so I stopped after a few days. Now I'm using Nitro again, even though it doesn't seem to be healing me, I'm carrying on with it just in case it is stopping me from getting worse, if that makes sense...
