Recently Had Endovascular Laser Ablation To Both Legs, Very Successful

Recently had endovascular laser ablation to both legs, very successful but 6 weeks after having bilateral ankle edema. Saw interventionalist doctor today, he thinks it may now be the exforge that I've been taking for the last 3 years. I have never had ankle swelling before, but he thinks that it may be a side effect since he has changed the vascular its of that area with multiple sclerotherapy injections. Ankle swelling is a common side effect from exforge, I'm thinking of discontinuing tomorrow and checking with my PCP to substitute a different BP med. your thoughts?
