Hello!
Thank you for asking on HCM!
Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to amlodipine adverse effects.
Hyperkalemia, could also explain some of your symptoms.
Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam, a complete blood count and blood electrolyte levels.
You may need to stop amlodipine and switch to another anti-hypertensive drug.
Hope to have been helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
