Hi All, Has anyone experience complete loss of apetite with heart failure. I hava an ejection fraction of 24%. Abdomen showed just stomach swelling. Currently taking candersarten and bumetanide (water pill). Betablockers have no suited.

I have severe COPD, just wondering if anybody with this condition suffer with swollen legs, mainly the right leg & feet.

My understanding of being prescribed Eplerenone is that it is a potassium sparing diuretic (stops any potassium being expelled from the body) to be taken alongside the Bumetanide which is a diuretic that expels all excess fluid. I was previously prescribed Spironolactone -another slightly stronger potassium

Any tips for reducing oedema in legs except for diuretics ? Although I get up often,it’s only briefly due to pain from #s lumbars 1-5 & T13.I live on recliner sofa,legs up most of the day re pain, and overnight legs up on two pillows. Seems to be getting worse and more often,few days on Bumetanide sorted

So after 4 years A F free, the mongrel has returned. I am so upset 😡 😫 😪 and contacted my HF Nurse who has cut down my spironolactone to every other day as i have also been getting light headed and woozy. She has also reduced my Bumetanide from 4 to 3 daily. My Consultant has stopped my Bisoprolol

Hi me again :( So Ascites, my hubby has now probably been drained at least 5 times since his proper diagnoses of Alcoholic Cirrhosis back in Jan/Feb & near death spell in hospital in April! Whiles in hospital for 3 weeks he was drained twice of a hell of a lot of fluid! We then saw the consultant beginning

I’m a 75 year old in permanent AF. Started way back in 2008 but these days only mild symptoms and being treated by drugs. Since 2008 have had several cardio versions, a single ablation and an aortic valve replaced twice (2008 & 2020). I’m sure that my meds are a fairly standard ‘package’ - Warfarin,

I was recently in hospital in Cyprus with pneumonia. Whilst there it was discovered that I had dangerously low potassium levels. That was dealt with and I lost 6 kgs of fluid in 5 days.

My husband was on Furosemide with Spironlactone but swelling in legs not improving, on a phone call the Cardiologist changed the prescription to Bumetanide. That didn’t improve it, GP then reduced the Bumetanide and we thought he said to add Spironlactone back in, but no prescription came so we checked
