Thanks Patrick, that is great info. I would like to add a caution. 18 months ago I was in the hospital for 2 days replacing my soidum because of drinking too much fluid. Since I was't taking Gleevec any more and still on water pills I was having the reverse effect of over hydrating. All of my doctors kept telling me to drink more water but none told me that I needed reduce the amount of fluids by about 50%. Good luck, and happy hydration. Richard H.
