Re: My Dad ill again
LQ, this sounds very similar to a condition my own dad had when he was very ill with dementia. He had recurring water retention issues and his feet were especially swollen in that they had to pad them out with foam because they would bruise so easily. I don't want to go any further with that as it's not very nice to talk about and brings back awful memories.Re: My Dad ill again
I am 81 years old and had a problem with my right leg swelling up a while back. At the same time my annual blood test showed low sodium level in my blood. My doctor decided the low sodium was due to one of my blood pressure tablets so changed my tablet. More blood tests showed my sodium level had risen slightly. The swelling in my leg also went down though it is still bigger than my right leg. Sorry not a pretty sight
