My mum has pretty severe Chronic Heart Failure - she drinks/smokes and doesn't exercise
She has had 2 DVT & has very laboured breathing
She recently went onto hospital for nearly 3 weeks to balance her medications and within a week of coming out they were all stopped because she was getting kidney damage
Her breathing is awful and her legs are very very swollen; the risk is that her leg ulcers will come back
The consultant wants her on water tablets the GP wants to protect her kidneys - is there anything else that could be done? (I am assuming not but I thought I'd ask)
