Hi, I take hydrochlorthiazide, this is a weak diuretic that removes excess fluids from my system. Some drugs cause us to retain extra fluid and it causes edema. I was having this same issue. But not just in my legs, also in my hands. Putting your legs up higher than your heart will also help remove fluid. Feel them, do they feel a little puffy? If so then this should help. There is also another medical problem called leaky vein syndrome. The check valves in the veins don't work as well. A check valve closes when the blood is going in the wrong direction. If they are leaking, blood tends to pool in the legs when standing, gravity after all.

Hang in there! Hugs and prayers,

I'm not feeling well right now, so keeping it as short as I can. I know you understand.

Prolapse symptoms, same as mine plus I get loads of Dragging etc.

In my mind if you have a prolapsed organ it will press on nerves and blood vessels and, like a tight elastic band can stop blood flow and cause water to leak into the tissues( swelling) I think this is possibly happening...

Surely you need to releave the cause of the fluid leaking into tissues not just give diuretics to get rid of it.

This is just a theory of mine.

Also, Google PSOAS muscle and read about how it can create the symptoms you describe along with pelvic pain..... Good luck and so sorry to read you are going through it
