In a word - YES

You can ask your GP to try another medication, but I've found that they all have that effect on me and some of them make my legs and feet swell up as well.

Yeah my ankles have been swollen some days. Legs feel wobbly weak

Quite frankly I can't decide what's worse - no pills with no symptoms and high BP, or pills with side effects and normal BP.

Mine is still too high I walked loads yesterday and legs are sore today this didn't happen before I started bp pills. I've got vitamin d deficiency too so that's not helping . Thyroid stuff too.

There's a lot of people worse though so just need to do what we can I suppose

Amlodipine is listed as a bad bp med, i think there was 4 listed, Lisinipril, Hydroclorotizide, Amlodipine , propronilol.
