Suggest Treatment For Swelling On Feet, Asthma And GERD
I am having swelling in my left leg and left foot. I have diabetes 2, a goiter and low thyroid activity, Potassium deficiency due to Barter Syndrome, high blood pressure, severe asthma and severe gerd. My doctor put me on a diuretic but it is not helping any. The more that I am on my feet the worse the swelling is.
