What Causes Heaviness And Tingling In Legs While On Medication For BP?

Hello and thank you for your answer. I have lately the feeling of heavy legs, from time to time tingling. At night when resting the tendons below my knees ache or at least I believe it is the tendons. I have lots of heavy spider veins, some of them bulging. Also I have high blood pressure and am taking Amlodipine 5mg, also Hypothyroid and am taking Syntroid 75 mcg. Thank you for your comment. Sincerely, Britta Parchois

Hello,

It may be due to peripheral neuropathy. For that you may require complete hemogram, vitamin B12 levels after physician consultation. Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
