This is the kind of question you should be asking an internist, not a psychiatrist, but for what its worth, if you having cold hands and feet it may be related to the medication, although it should work the opposite way, or it may be the same thing that is causing the blood pressure to rise....ask your doctor to check this out, it may be quite important.
