I was on amlodipine 5 mg and lisinopril 10 mg and then my heart doctor doubled both of these meds. After about 5 days my legs started to ache and pain until I could hardly walk. I stopped the amlodipine for three days and the leg pain stopped. I went back on it at the 5 mg and now I have only mild pain on and off. I don't know if this is the med for me or not but my blood pressure goes up some when I don't take it. What should I do. I told the doc I went back to 5 mg and he said that it was okay but he didn't say I should try something else. So confused. Take medicine for one thing and it causes something else. What to do--what to do?
