Hello, Joyce! How are you? I am so sorry that you're in pain.
Yes, it can cause the pain like that, especially if the Hydrochlorothiazide in it is causing you to get dehydrated, because it is a diuretic that removes excess fluid from the body. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, stomach pain, and hypotension.
As to your iron level, many blood pressure drugs can affect those results, so it might not be accurate.
Are you feeling fatigued regularly? Extremely tired?
Yes
You might be dehydrated, due to the diuretic in this.
How much liquids do you take in each day, not including anything caffeinated or alcoholic?
