Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi i'm taking Valsartan Mylan for blood pressure and Rosuvastatin for colesterol. These are the generic form of the prescription my doctor gave me as the are much cheaper. I have started to notice my ankles are swelling and my feet seem to be very tired since starting on the blood pressure tablets (4 mths now) I have been on Crestor for 5 years with no side effect
HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern and from the history given here I could say that if you are taking some medicine for blood pressure and right now found the ankle swelling then better to see the blood pressure if it is normal and get done the echo here the possibility of congestive heart failure need to be ruled out, you have not mentioned your age and gender else I would think something different, have a nice day.
