What Causes Swelling In Legs And Abdomen While Suffering From Chronic Cystitis?
I have swelling in my legs and abdomen and joints, water retention and decreased urinary output with kidney pain and chest pain. I have had to be catheterized several times over the last three years due to acute urinary retention. My resting heart rate has been consistently high, I have chronic cystitis and tests in the last year showed protein and sugar in my urine. My Mirena went missing in 2010 and they never located it. I have also been donating plasma once or twice a week and feeling seriously fatigued with moments of mental cloudiness and confusion.
