Welcome dear!
Thanks for consulting me at virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
Kidneys when have some problem, can't normally filter the blood. Some diseases cause proteins lost in urine leaving back a fluid thats hypoosmolar( less concentration fluid) and that fluid seeps into the interstitial spaces especially in peripheral dependant parts of the body(legs & feet).
If you can give me your blood pressure recordings, medicines you are taking, your age, height and any significant medical history and Labs, I will assist you in the best way to help you be able to serve your loved one with more ease. Your condition can be made better with medicines.
If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile. You can also attach Lab reports and pictures with direct question.
May you get very well soon and have a wonderful time ahead. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback and five star rating, to help me assist you in a better way. Click at 'I Find This Answer Helpful.' Please, write a review about your experience with me.
