Suggest Treatment For Swelling On Feet And Back Pain
I am taking lasix for CHF, lately I do not seem to be urinating as often, my legs and feet are swollen and I have sharp pains in right side radiating to back and mid/right abdomen. Is this something to worry about? I am a 62 year old female, no gallbladder, had Hep C but was treated and cured . Thanks

Hello,
Firstly you should check the expiration date because the diuretic is not doing it's function. If it is ok then you should consult your cardiologist for CHF and also a nephrologist to test your kidney function. Kidney failure is also possible.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
