She has been having trouble with fluid retention and swelling in her stomach and especially her feet. We are adjusting her diet but would love recommendations to help this. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! (From some type of stool to keep feet somewhat elevated when she is sitting at counter to any other tips) Thank you.
