My Husband has severe swelling in his legs and feet. Everything we have tried like feet above heart, warm baths, massaging and such has not relieved this for him.. Anyone have any suggestions for this issue. He is on lasix for fluid retention from heart transplant but its not helping either. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Sheryl

My name is Sheryl and my husband is a heart transplant patient. 5 years post transplant. Three years ago he was diagnosed with nsclc rt lung had lobectomy with no treatment to follow. One year later he was diagnosed same thing but the left lung w/metas to brain and spine. 6 months of taxol and carbo and 21 days of radiation to be given news he was cancer free. August this pain started in his rt leg and the cancer was back. Multiple areas, femurs, spine, shoulders. 3 months of Taxol/carbo and 10 radiation treatments to find out Tuesday that it is not responding and has spread to his liver.. I'm looking for support, info, anyone in a similar situation that can give me anything I would so much love to talk to all of you. This seems like a fantastic place to start.. My husband and i have been together since we were 19 and we are now 42 we have two boys ages 21 and 16. They are so full of questions and I wish I new all the answers. Just looking for some sunshine..... SHERYL in WA
