Hi there, I had the same problem, my heart valve was pumping backwards and the fluid was going into my lungs and around my heart. First time I was put on low dose blood pressure tablets and it worked. Next time it was caused by my thyroid treatment which put me into heart failure, good news is the thyroid is functioning well and I now have to leaking valves, the other one apparently is supposed to make my feet swell but they don't. I got rid of 5ks of fluid over night in hospital by taking fluid drugs, if they didn't work they were going to drain my lungs via ultra sound. I also have a overlapping connective tissue problem which upsets my system by trying to kill off all my healty cells, bad enough with the BC let alone my own body being a traitor. No cure for this disorder just treat symptoms, aches pains cold and flue symptoms, red face, tired all sound familiar. Hope this info helps. I do find that drugs containing sulphur bring it on as well.

Hugs Lyn
