Dad's recovering from bypass as most of you know...this morning my mom calls at 5am and says we need to take dad to the ER.
His legs and nuts have become very swollen, water retention.
They said congestive heart condition and gave him stuff called Lasix, which makes you pee alot and often and helps rid the body of excess fluids, basically gets the kidneys going at full speed. Seems he'll be fine but its still a sary thing to get those kinda calls..
.
I'm tired and pooped out....and I got an ear infucktion to boot.... :banghead

totally :(  You'd think having your chest ripped open would give you some lasting pain but he's been completely pain free other than the leg and scrotum swelling....

Lasix is the one alright.....They gave him that in the IV and he peed within 5 minutes, then again another 5-6 times in the next 3-4 hours.
Now he takes a double dose of Lasix in pill form...not as effective nor as quickly but he is going much better.
Concurrent with the Lasix he has to take potasium pills because lasix robs the body of it....
Blows my mind, he's taking about 20 pills a day :eek .....this man never took anything unless forced, even aspirin..

WOW...just gettin' caught up on this... :eek   With my folks, we went some 5 years living in panic mode at a early morning (or late night) phone call.  God Bless Them... :good

My mom's hanging in there at 84...she takes between 15-20 pills a day as well.  I'm with you, I only take when instructed, and ususally forget after a few days anyway... :laugh

Stubborn German blood anyway...keep him on schedule... :beat  :flamed  :D
