Edema
"I have been to the hospital emergency room twice in 2 months with a diagnosis of edema. I was prescribed Lasix 20 mg along with Potassium pills.  In the hospital they put Lasix in IV &amp; it works almost immediately causing me to urinate about 20 times.  My doctor has me on 40 mg of Lasix &amp; low salt diet.  The swelling has left my legs, but not my feet.  I have noticed that if I elevate my feet at least 3-4 times a day with feet at heart level, the swelling goes down much better.  I am trusting that swelling will go away completely soon.  I am doing much better since going to emergency room, just still having difficulty walking.  This can be very stressful to deal with because it affects mobility &amp; exercising is challenging. I am a fall risk."
