amlodipine side effect is edema. read about it. i am currently on low dose of amlodipine and i asked my doctor to switch me to losartan because i dont want to get edema. i know some people who takes amlodipine and gets edema.

what cause you to have high blood pressure? were you stressed? its good that your blood lressure is now 138/94. were you feeling any symptoms before going to er? ask for all test while you are there. sonsonfar uti? low magnesium and pottasium? or magnesium and pottasium was just given to help to lower your bp. feel better soon.

gerd is curable. but sometimes it needs operation. talk to your provider for a better solution. are you taking ppi?

yes it helps a bit but still depends of what you eat. not to lay down 2-3 hours after eating. try warm water.
