I am on 10mg amlodipine daily

the edema bothered me initially

my family doctor quite reluctant to change the medicine, prefer me to stick with it and deal with the edema 

I sleep with a wedge pillow to raise my legs at night

maybe 10 times in a year I will get those "shoes feel like one size smaller edema" especially towards end of the day

I think you need to take another medication and drop your amlo to 5mg. At 5mg most pt should find the edema minimal. 

Otherwise just change your doctor lah. This kinda stuff should not bother the patient. Unless really bo pian need to take. ARBs work very well also.

day 6

it is not getting better

I am seeing GP this evening

I hope it is not related to the antibiotics I took 2 months ago

ciprofloxacin

there are rare cases where it causes joints and tendons problem, months after completed the course

Seldom can find GP got patience to talk to you for so long. Most GP go in see them and come out in less than 10 mins or some even less than 5 mins.
