I would definitely go back to the doctor and let them know about it because that has got to be very uncomfortable to be having that much fluid in your ankles and feet. I stopped taking this drug after 2 months because I had pins and needles and a slew of other effects, the worst and most debilitating one being extremely sore painful feet where I was unable to walk even a meter without being in extreme pain. I then developed fibromyalgia syndrome and CFS and have not recovered since. This drug has been banned in several countries now.
