Question:

If known, what was the cause of your pulmonary edema? Submit Your Comment

Comment from: Diabetic, 55-64 Male (Patient) Published: July 09

My pulmonary edema is an annual event that progressively gets worse during winter. It is due to diabetes and a resulting weakened heart muscle, poor blood circulation, and a suppressed immune system.
