General & Family Physician 's  Response
Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your and being your physcian ii completely understand your health concerns.
which medication u are using for blood pressure? have u done ur renal function tests? do u have and heart problem? have ur doctor ever tested u for any liver problem? are u diabetic?
feet swelling mostly due to problem in heart , liver and kidneys. you need to be examined by the PHYSCIAN so that accurate diagnosis can be made in time. if i were ur attending physcian i will do ur ECG , ECHO, UREA ,CREATININE, LFTs, S. ALBUMIN
if u are hypertensive then u should be prescribed DIURETIC to control blood pressure and it will also help u feet swelling.
PLZ do consult ur doctor and use PNEUMOCOCCAL VACCINE yearly for COPD.
Hope your query is adequately addressed if you still have any feel free to ask
Regards
