What Causes Edema In Ankles After Having Cilacar?

I am taking Metropolol XR 50, Cardace 5 (tds) and Cilacar 10 with 1/2 Lasiks40 . Cilacar was started comparatively recently. I am getting edema around the ankles, more on the left leg and also itching despite using a moisturiser. I am a diabetic on Insulin for over two decades. Creatinine is less than 1.5 but there is micro albuminuria of about 80. Pheripheral neuritis is there. Is this related to Cilacar and if so can you suggest an alternative.

HI
Well come to HCM
Because of this disease that is having it is better to be very much conscious for renal function and this need to be tested for normal one because this may be cause of edema, another reason could be heart failure and this also need to be ruled out, better to discus this with doctor, hope this information helps, take care.
