I am on lasix 40mg 3x daily, plus bp med and gabipentin for repeat shingle x8 and small nerve neuropothy. Recent presentation of gall stones and R ovarian cyst. Recent test showing I m beginning chf with readings of 190 and 102. Right now I m having upper right quadrant pain that includes right flank into back. Dull and nagging.
