Afib and congestive heart failure
Hello - I write about my mother who is 90 yrs. old with afib and recently diagnosed with chf. She was on 10 mgs. of Lasix 2 x a day, but her edema and congestion in her lungs increased and she was very short of breath - especially at night and she had to sit in her recliner to get her breath back.

Myopic blind spot
I am 51 years old and was severely myopic (-15) before having
Lasik
about 18 years ago. My vision gradually got worse until I became about minus 6. I noticed a yellow blob in my right eye vision earlier in the year which developed into a blind spot to the left of my central vision.

So sick and tired
I am sorry I haven't been on in a while. I have been in either the hospital or nursing home/rehabs mor than I can count since early summer. I live in a small rural community and our local hospital does not have a neuro dept. Everytime something goes wrong they pagkage me up and send me to Hartford Hospital

A little side trip to the hospital
well all the swelling ended up being pericarditis, but no one seems to be able to tell me how it occurred. Anyway after a few days in there I am home and am not at the mercy of their horrid food. Yay. Can't take anti inflammatories so it is will a bit of a long journey to heal. At least I can breathe

Back in hospital trying to get proper testing...
I find myself back in th hospital after being discharged just 3 days ago. I have pulmonary edema and congestive heart failure. My PTINR are not therapuetic and they are bridging me with Lovenox. I had my first migraine since my stroke back in 2011 when I started on Warfarin. I panicked a little as it

Looking for some advice on how to live a normal life having liver cirhossis.
My husband was very recently diagnosed with liver cirhossis. He has like every symptom you could possibly have from it, nausea, ascitis, muscle wasting, insomnia, vomiting, etc. and I was just wondering how he is going to be able to function normally. He had to take the Lasix so he has to go to the

I am really fed up and can't live with edema (water retention) anymore. Does anyone has any thoughts to share about this?
I was untreated for hypothyroidism for years because my results were always more or less "normal". Instead I received all sorts of treatments for diseases I never had, just wasted time, money, health. I started retaining water year after I became ill. it was in 2009 and since then IT NEVER STOPPED. I

Edema anyone?
Wondering if anyone has experience with edema (swelling, fluid retention) in the legs and belly. I've had quite a bit over the past 10-15 days and am quite discouraged. I've gained around 15-20 pounds. My GI doctor suggested a salt restricted diet and compression stockings (miserable in the southern

Too tired to think.
I have been doing so much studying about this diagnosis and dealing with the pain in my body and head. I was started on 50mg of prednisone 3 days ago and it is finally beginning to help. My biopsy for GCA is in the morning and I am somewhat apprehensive tonight. I haven't slept only an hour or two in

Current RLS journey
I've had RLS for about 12 years, and am also Hypothyroid. I search everything I can to find help. The nights are miserable and I find myself begging for mercy about the third day that has passed with no sleep. A few months ago, a neurologist added another diagnosis to my RLS. He said that the jerking

I am in permanent a-fib. I am trying to find help for the breathlessness it causes. I have had 3 cardioversions - they didn't work - one lasted 2 days. I am on metropolol, losartan, lipitor, xarelto, lasix, klor con and tikosyn. I am too old for an ablation procedure - 85-year-old female. Any suggestions

LASIK while on Blood Thinner
Has anyone had
LASIK
since being put on blood thinner? Eye surgeon is concerned that putting pressure on eye to create flap will cause a bleed and is not keen on me bridging (even though I've successfully bridged before for a biopsy).

Why are my hands and feet swelling?
I am having almost identical symptoms and it is wonderful to have them validated! For nearly 15 years I have suffered with severe fatigue and body rashes. Not one physician has ever appeared concerned, even though the swelling in one leg is severe and has been with me 15 years, despite a daily dose

They say its anxiety
I had
lasik
in March. I have had a couple panic attacks before in my life. Nothing too crazy mostly just waking up in the middle of the night when my brother-in-law was in the hospital. The other time was right after
lasik
when they gave me tramadol.
