"I initially complained to the GP at private clinics and hospitals in South Africa about not being able to sleep lying down. Following incompetence by the clinic and two private hospitals, I was admitted to the heart ward in a public facility that is also an academic hospital. The doctors put me on 4 x 80 mg (injectable) for the first 3 days. After two days, the swelling in my legs and body had gone down. I was peeing more than 2000 ml every 12 hours. By the 5th day, I was back to normal. From the start, I had no discomfort in the stomach and no nausea like I had while in the private hospitals. Clearly, while the private hospital used Lasix and also prescribed Lasix, the dosage of 40 mg per day was ineffective."
