Hello Greg, I just got out of the hospital from having congestive heart failure. Liquid fill up in my body and they overdosed me on Lasix to get rid of water in the body.
I was also having trouble breathing and that's what led me to the hospital. What I didn't realize was that the fluid build up in the body and I had an estimated 10 lb of liquid out of my body after they gave me Lasix. I find that I can breathe a lot better, my oxygen level is a little low, but it never really was the best. The one side effect of taking Lasix was that I lost about half of my quad gut. I don't know if you are having issue with fluid, it might be possible to ask your doctor his thoughts and if you weren't on a diuretic already that he would allow you to try it. Good luck, Glenn
