Hello, Your symptoms could be related to liver failure. For this reason, as you have had liver problems and limb swelling the fist thing to do is performing an abdominal ultrasound and checking liver and renal function tests. Other tests to consider would be a cardiac ultrasound and checking blood electrolytes. In the meantime, I would recommend reducing salt and water intake and taking diuretics (furosemide, spironolactone). Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
