Are you taking Tadalafil and Ambrisentan?

I am newly diagnosed with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and this will be my initial treatment.
Did they help? If yes, how long did they take to work, and what difference did you notice. Did you have any side effects?

Members shared their experiences with Tadalafil and Ambrisentan for newly diagnosed pulmonary arterial hypertension, with several reporting that the medications took a few days to work and helped improve breathing, reduce shortness of breath, and increase activity tolerance. Several members emphasized the importance of taking medications at the same time daily, monitoring oxygen levels with an oximeter (keeping levels above 90), and working closely with a pulmonologist to navigate the complex three-pathway treatment approach. A recurring theme was the value of peer support and patience, with members warmly welcoming newcomers and encouraging them to ask questions as they learn to manage their condition one step at a time.

Hi CharleneRaines
I would love to chat with you I didn't mention that you need to check your oxygen levels You need to get an oxi meter to check your oxygen levels at night oxygen level has to be above 90 This has to be checked at night
This is why I use the Bi Pap machine
