Hi Dana.
I don't use a diuretic. It's really difficult to use a diuretic when you do intermittent catheterization. None of the doctors seem very concerned about the edema, and for me it is just a nuisance at this point. Since I drive my wheelchair with a control collar around my neck, I can't wear necklaces and things like that. My fingers swell up, so I cannot wear rings, so my jewelry options are earrings and a watch. So much for my feminine vanity ha ha.

I do and that really helps with swelling only it was on my legs and feet. I don't know of for having from the same reason, but I would think so? Just wondering I take hydrochlorothiazide . Dana
