Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for your question.
Swellling can be a sign of heart failure. Again please see my other responses. With your family history of heart disease, chest pain, shortness of breath, and swelling you really need to see a doctor immediately to check out your heart.
Please seek emergency care now.
