Water Pill?



Recommended Posts

Does anyone know of any good otc Water pill? My body holds so much water and I can't seem to get rid of it on my own. I have been trying dyurex (sp)? The last week or so and its not really helpful.

I would talk to your doctor as I never found OTC ones helpful myself. I am on BP meds and it has a dieuretic in it now so that covers me. Also, are you watching your salt intake? That makes a huge difference for me.

I was on hydrochlorthizide (sp)? And that was the best ever. I was on that due to high bp as well. Now since I've lost all this weight my bp has returned to normal and the drs arnt sure they wanna give me that pill. I plan to make an appt with my dr again to talk to him about this issue but I wanna try something in the meantime as we all know how long it can take to see our drs. Lol I do tend to have to much sodium in my diet so I know I need to watch that as well. I really do have a problem though. I can drink 5 or 6 bottles of Water and never need to use the bathroom.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
