What Causes Painful And Swollen Legs Along With Frequent Urination?

Hi, I was treated by 14 ampullas of amiodarone in 10 hours for AFib. Afterwards, besides various side effects I felt immediately -breathing, coughing, etc.- in the next months I remarked: legs pains and swelling, skin eruption on legs, frequent urination. What medical tests I have to do ? Thank you. Adrian

1. LFT
2. RFT
