Hello,

I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms could be related to heart failure.

Coming to this point, an increase in the dose of Lasix may be needed.

I recommend discussing with your attending physician on this issue.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
