    thanks Anna Lea ... www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/.../20887912 Am J Emerg Med. 2010 October; 28(8):941-6. Swimming-induced pulmonary edema in triathletes. Miller CC 3rd, Calder-Becker K, Modave F. CONCLUSIONS:The identification of hypertension and fish oil in particular as risk factors raise questions about the role of cardiac diastolic function in the setting of water-immersion cardiac preload, as well as the hematologic effects of fish oil. Mechanistic studies of these risk factors in a directly observed prospective cohort are indicated. Fish oil? who knew?
