46yrs Female. Symptoms Of Body Swollen And Exhausted. Is It Related To Heart Condition?
I am 46 yr old, 104 lb female, who does not take any medications and in good health (I thought). I have no allergies , nor ate anything to cause a problem... when I woke this morning, my hands , feet , body, face, head, temples are swollen and I feel exhausted and tired. Could this be related to a heart condition? (never had a problem, but my father, and his family has had major heart problems... who most all of them are now dead from)

hi i had gone through your query and understand your concerns. i would come up with two possibilities
1.the first one include, HYPOTHYROIDISM; check your blood test for increased TSH levels for confirmation.
2.second possibility is, CONGESTIVE HEART DIASES;
-ecg,echo may confirm the diagnosis.
I hope this is helpful for you, thank you
