Anyone else get this from candesartan?

I've been on it from the start of this year, and after that I've started getting symptoms like when youre delevoping a cold and respiratory infection.

I would get sore throat, cold and sick feeling in lungs, and a feeling like you get when a feawer is starting to rise.

I've had multiple blood tests and everything is normal, so all points to candesartan.

It's even listed in possible side effects:

"The main side effects of candesartan are dizziness, headache and cold or flu-like symptoms".

Anyone else here get this from candesartan?

Sucks cause now I'll probably have to go back on amlodipin.
