AngrySparrow gave you some very good advice and important information. I can't add much to that except that I get severe lower back pain when I am retaining a lot of fluid. It goes away once they have drained the fluid out of me. I dont know if this is your case though. I also think you should be checked for kidney failure.

Good Wishes, keep us posted if you can. Cathy

You could have the flu. There are some bugs going around with those symptoms. Just a thought.

Hi! Are your doctors and pharmacist aware of all medications yot take? Are you taking all medications as directed? Your symptoms definitely need to be evaluated. Please do so. I hope you get an answer and relief soon. Hopeful Heart

I have had my pacer since 2005. At first it ruled my life. It took some time to calm down and make the mental adjustment. I had trouble sleeping and I worried a lot about pulling wires. Now I just live my life as I wish.
