Hi dear!

Thanks for consulting the Physicians at HealthCare Magic. I have worked through your case thoroughly, and I can easily realize your health worries. Being your physician, I reassure you not to worry as things will settle down very soon.
Consult some other physician for this problem. You definitely have some problem with your Kidneys/ or / heart / or / liver. OR you are taking some blood pressure medications (for example Amlodipine Besylate i.e. Norvasc).
Ask your doctor to screen you for Hepatitis B and C. Ask him to do Complete Metabolic profile. Ask him to advise you an Ultrasound of Abdomen especially right upper quadrant for liver and all other abdominal viscerae also. If one of these tests are positive(God forbid), then your doctor will tell you what to do.

May you get very well soon and have a wonderful time ahead. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback to help us assist you in a better way. Click at 'I Find This Answer Helpful' & give a five Stars too. Write a review about your experience with me.

 

Regards!
