Hell, Dayla! How are you doing? Sorry about the GA.

But no, from what I've been able to find, it hasn't been known to be caused by medications.

Did your doctor have any ideas why you might have developed GA? It has sometimes been associated with some allergies, such as gluten and with Lupus.

I did stop taking the Bystolic. I had been on it for 5 yrs. taking 10 mg. also 40mg. of Benicar. I went up to 20 mg. of the Bystolic and it wasn't managing the blood pressure and was causing alot of side effects at that amount. i wouldn't recommend taking that much Bystolic. I went back to Metoprolol ER and for right now the BP is being managed.
The GA rash has not subsided and it's been almost 2 wks. I got a biopsy and the rash was identified as ga. Not lupus. I don't think it's diet or allergy related and i don't have the money for food allergy testing. It was good to finally find out it wasn't the Bystolic causing it because there have been some studies that have found it could be caused from medications. Thanks for your reply.
