Swollen legs and ankles symptoms and conditions

Been on Lisinopril for exactly 4 weeks and the only thing my doctor said was that some people report a cough, but she didn't tell me that I would sound like I have T.B.!! I work in an icu and I deal mainly with the family members and the telephone and when you can't effectively do your job right because of the constant coughing fits, its a problem. I was on HCTZ prior to lisinopril and the only side effect from that was the constant bathroom breaks, and minimal sleep disturbances. I now have swollen legs and ankles and whereas I was walking 3 times a week for an hour, I can't seem to make it up the street without being so tired. We have 15steps in our house and even that is a chore to do at times. I am actually going back to the doctor tomorrow for a BP recheck and I am getting my HCTZ back because if my choice is urinating or coughing fits with swelling, then you guess it.. This may explain why I am on a month to month doctor's visit for BP......mmmmmmmmmmmmm

Swollen legs and ankles since I started with Norvasc...also pain in ankles after swelling goes down???
