I Am HF Patient Taking Candesartan XL, Tiazac, Bisaprolol And 5mg Of Amolodopine.
A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member asked a question 💭

I developed edema with heavy swelling in the lower legs and ankles during the day but it goes away overnight.
I use compression socks which helps somewhat.
I read that Amlodopine may be the culprit. Can I discontinue it for a week to see if that helps.

Do you keep your feet elevated durring the day when ever you can?? For the swelling to go down at night time…….that is WONDERFUL…..share this with your heart doctor & see what he has to say 😃
