Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Dependent part's edema means chronic renal failure .
It seems you are having this disease.
2nd reason as you mentioned that there is shortness in breath , may be due to hypoalbuminea or anemia.
Either upload all reports or consult your urologist for further treatment .
Good luck.
