T3 and High Blood Pressure and medication

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I have been taking T3, 62.5mcg, for 15 months and doing well on it.

I've been advised by my GP that I must take medication for my high blood

pressure. I was first prescribed Felodipine and then Amlodipine. I feel unwell

on both but worse on the latter so asked to go back to taking Felodipine. I

have been on these two for a total of 5 weeks. My ankle are swollen and my lower

legs painful and hot. I suddenly flush all over for a good few hours.I feel

miserable on it. The GP wants to add water tablets but I don't think that's the

answer.

Has anyone taken this medication and change to another with better results?

Thanks for any advice.

Judy
