I Can't Win For Loosing!!!

Hey Yall, Remember i told you all about me and my Water Retention? Well I talked to my Doctors office yesterday, only to find out that my Anxiety Medicine Effexor causes WATER RETENTION. I mean I can not WIN. I could not figure why I stay swollen and why I can not loose, well there you have it. I am sooooooooo UPSET!!!! Anyhoo, another DAY in the LIFE of a WLS PATIENT!!! and they say this is the EASY EAY OUT!!!!! Adrienne

Ask your PCP for a prescription diuretic.I take one 2x a week and it really helps. Cathy

Thanks Cathy, I am going to contact him in the morning and see if i can take one. Adrienne

Cheese and low carb crackers BAT CHICK!!! That just sucks! Try the dyuretic (sp) - it might do ya a world of good. Ask Doc first though!

Hi, I am going to inquire about that tomorrow. Adrienne
