Pathologist and Microbiologist, Dr. Jyothi B L's Response
Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows. 1. Possible elevation due to amlodipine induced damage 2. In the elderly mild elevation is possible. However, as you have been removed from amlodipine, you need not worry about it. 3. Ankle and feet swelling was due to side effect of amlodipine. Keep the foot elevated in lying down position to reduce swelling. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
