You have swollen legs, feet, and ankles

This might happen because your heart doesn’t pump enough blood as effectively as it should. If the heart can’t pump the way it should, the blood starts to back up in the veins and causes bloating.

Heart failure makes it harder for the kidneys to remove this extra water and sodium from the body. Plus, the swelling may appear in other areas of the body as well.

If this symptom appeared just once, it might be due to an injury, and not from another underlying disease. But if this symptom comes with shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, and chest pain, you should visit the doctor right away.

    I have a irregular heart beat 95% of the time. I have sweating at night when sleeping some times drenched.
    My heart has had racing above 100 beats per minute. My blood pressure suddenly dropped low 5 days before Christmas. I had to stop taking blood pressure medication because it was too low. But now I have been fatiqued all the time since then. I can’t hardly do anything at all. My left artery is 79% plugged up. And I have congestive heart failure. Is there anythng that can help my heart !
