No any tab good or bad.
The tablet which suits you n your bp is maintained is good for you.
Only tab heardly work you have to control your diet, change lifestyle, add excercise simplest is brick walk 40 min, five days a week.
Listen every tablet have some or more side effects, so you can't change every medicine two months or so.
Better to consult your doctor, because your treating doctor must know which tab you have stop, or switch on.

Please consult in the OPD with good physician or adut. Cardiologist. Never a medicine must be added or switched without proper clinical exam. Your BP is responding but HR high for age. It should have gone down. You might be having few extra beats.

Yes valsartan can be used in the place of telmisartan.
It's available in strengths of 80 mg /160 mg.
I recommend 80 mg to start with.

Probably too strong medicine. Full effect of amlodipine will come after 30 days, your BP may become below 100 next month due to too much medicine. Suggest stop medicine. Measure BP only once every month on fixed date after resting for ten minutes, start medicines if BP 160 on 2 occasions, or if always above 140.

Very unlikely the cause may be by amlodipine, rather change your daily lifestyle like drinking adequate water daily, no or less junks, more of fibers and less carb diets. That will help you a lot. Also get one physician consultation regarding hypertension any change of dosages/ compositions.

Little bit difference. Side effects like swelling over legs is less with S-Amlodipine, Also efficacy is little superior of S-Amlodipine but if her BP is controlled with Amlodipine you can continue with that.
