Ran out of Norvasc 10 1 wk; my dr was weaning me from 20 mg & added other med what side effects to watch for?

Editor's Rating: 00000

My doc is unavailable for 2 more days; my only feeling is an intermittent headache. We had been weaning the Norvasc after I experienced pretty significant pedal edema when we doubled from 10 to 20 mg daily of the Norvasc. When we started the wean, she added Cardizem. Other than the standard disclaimer about not abruptly stopping medication, is there something specific I should be looking for? We have been travelling due to some family emergencies, and that is why I ran out.
