I see a potentially serious thing:
Lasix depletes thiamine significantly and if a person gets
depleted they are at risk of beri beri. Doctors don't look for this because they don't know of this effect, and besides they think beri beri only occurs when people are starving.
In fact it can be found in anyone. You can have him tested for B1, or you can read up on this yourself:
Quote:
Wet beriberi
Wet beriberi affects the heart; it is sometimes fatal, as it causes a combination of heart failure and weakening of the capillary walls, which causes the peripheral tissues to become edematous. It is also characterized by:
Vasodilation leading to increased arteriovenous shunt
Peripheral edema
Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea
Increased heart rate
Dyspnea on exertion
Swelling of the lower legs

Increasing Lasix will only deplete further, and also lower magnesium levels as well.
