Good morning, I also have swollen ankles plus upper legs problems. This all started after a triple bypass two years ago. The water pills did not help.Answers are difficult to come by even from doctors.

Hi, @heria Did you have swollen ankles prior to your heart surgery? To me it sounds strange that happened after surgery but it's not an area that I am at all knowledgeable about.
Diuretics did not help at all? I am hoping I can get them prescribed and that they will help. I am really discouraged when I look at the folds in my feet by the end of the day.
My upper legs do not seem to be retaining water but they have been very achy. That can be a side effect of a medication I am taking so I am assuming that is what the cause is.
