Is LVSD heart failure
Hello all, I was recently diagnosed with mild LVSD after spending a day in hospital with low O2 sats. I have been prescribed Furosemide and have an appointment with my GP on 25th other than that I have been told nothing. I did the usual mistake of looking at doctor internet and all I see is heart failure

Itchy skin
I’m on edoxiban, Entresto, Carvedilol, allopurinol, digoxin and dapaglifozin everyday, with furosemide at my discretion. Anyone experience night time itching with any of these? As soon as I scratch it pops up somewhere else. 🤔

How much can anti-hypertensives affect GFR?
Take ARBs, epleronone, bisoprolol,
furosemide
, amlodipine,
amiloride
. BP fantastically well controlled now for past 16 years. It was under medicated for years by my GP who said it was only white coat hypertension (which it wasnt).

Advice of taking Furosemide please.
I have to take Furosemide,40mg. per day. For some reason this has suddenly become a problem. Please, has anyone a plan as how best to take this necessary medication and yet be able to leave the house . I find it takes about 5 or 6 hours before I am “safe” . Many thanks.

Good news for those suffering from heart failure, you CAN recover, I DID, thanks God.
First sorry for long post but it could be really helpful to those with heart failure. Nov 2019 ejection fraction at 15% , Mitral valve regurgitations (means not even pumping the 15% out correctly!), Got steadily worse, movement severely restricted, 80-year-old man fitter than me..and i was very fit

Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction - heart not filling adequately due to stiffness (caused by strain due to congenital defect)
Hi everyone, I had a bicuspid aortic valve that was diagnosed and replaced 2 years ago at age 44 when I got endocarditis. The valve replacement was supposed to be the solution to all my problems (which had been misdiagnosed until then as mental health issues). I was put on furosemide and bisporolol

Loss of apetite - Low EV (Ejection Fraction)
Since I have been diagnosed with an EV of 25% four months back the lower abdomen area feels so delicate. There is little apetite. Furosemide sometimes does assist even though I have no visible swelling in the legs or abdomen. I have tried beta blockers but cannot tolerate them. Heart rate has been 56
