Default blood pressure drugs

What does anyone do when they have swelling from blood pressure drugs, or swell in general and the doctors keep them on BP meds? I am being treated for High BP and Prinzmetal disease.. Does anyone want to talk about alternative BP medications?

I've read that most of BP meds are the same and all have ****ty side effects. I've used Clonidine, it made me tired as hell, libido dropped to the group(due to cortisol suppression), slight depression, didnt feel like doing anything at all, felt tired all the time, didnt disturb my sleep though but I did notice moving my arms while sleeping(actually noticed that apon waking up, which has never happend before). Not taking that anymore and I got 400 of these little suckers laying around.

My mother was misdiagnosed w/congestive heart failure due to BP drugs.
I haven't done too much research about, maybe find another doctor, in bigger city!
