Can you help me understand if Gabapentin and methylcobalamin tablets are actually meant for pedal edema? My grandmother thinks it helps reduce her swelling, but I thought it was for her neuropathic pain from cervical spondylosis. She's also dealing with grade 2 diastolic heart failure, and her cardiologist prescribed this. I'm just worried if we're using it right and if it really helps with edema, any advice?

No there is no role of this drug in resolving pedeledma ,and is used to neuropathic pain,continue that medicine

I've been feeling a bit worried lately because I've started experiencing shortness of breath and a slight heaviness in my chest at night. Its not really painful, but its been happening a couple of times a week over the last few days. Im not sure whats causing it or if I should be concerned. Who would be the best person to talk to about this?
