For Edema "I have had edema before in primarily my left leg, however, it usually goes away on its own. After some yard work in the heat, I was quite swollen, especially in the left leg, and as the leg went down, a heaviness settled in my chest, and I could barely breathe. I was taken to the ER after I started fearing a heart condition and was found to have heart failure with a normal functioning heart. I was given furosemide by vein in the ER and was admitted. I was sent home after testing with a prescription for two 40mg tablets twice a day and feel much better. I still feel really tired after very little exertion and have had some cramps in my feet. Overall, I feel much better. I hope that after losing some weight, I will be back to normal very soon. This is a wakeup call."

Furosemide for High Blood Pressure "I have PMR, but I have recently started on Lasix for high blood pressure. Terrible pain in shoulders and thighs, which is mimicking PMR symptoms for which I take prednisone. Also very dizzy, and can't walk without holding on to something. Tired all the time."
