I have been suffering with swelling in my ankles (mostly my left) for quite a while now. My dr put me on lasix for it and it was helping, but now it tends to come right back every time I stop taking the lasix, and its worse every time. This time it has lasted over a week, and it is only in my left ankle, but is swelling into the top of my foot and toes and into my calf. I have also noticed i'm more tired than usual and i sometimes feel really weak and have all over muscle stiffness when I get up in the mornings. I went to my dr on 11/10 and he ran no tests, but put me right back on lasix again, but this time cut my dose and took me completely off ibuprofen, which i take for s joint problems (also in my left leg). Everybody that sees the pics are yelling at me to get a second opinion, but I dont want to offend my dr. What do you think I should do? Sincerely, Need help to walk in NC
