Hi Marty, My doctor put me on Furosemide 20mg & potassium as I have low potassium to begin with, and at 20mg it did nothing. SO of course, he increased it to 40mg and still nothing. He switched me to a different drug Spironalactone, generic for Aldactone and still no trips to the bathroom and the swelling did not abate. My legs are just stubborn. So that is when all the testing started and current I am not on any diuretic as none of them have produced a result. Strange huh? Leave it to me to be difficult. But with all the other medical issues I have some not so common, the doctors are doing a bunch of tests with the hopes of find the culprit.
I have to tell ya, I would welcome a run for the bathroom about now. LOL😁 Anything to get rid of this excess water. As always, your input is most welcome.
