2/14/12 - Back on the water pills

Well I tried once again to get off my water pills and I gained 7 lbs in 2 days.
I can always tell when it's not going well because my fingers swell up and I get this puffiness above my cheekbones.    So needless to say, I am back on water pills, not that I really ever got off them.
It's better than retaining water and being put back in the hospital again.  But the water pills really dry your skin out.  I can't put enough lotion on my arms and hands and I am now using a face moisturizer twice a day.
In due time, my body will decide it's ready.  I go Friday for more blood work to see where my levels are.
I will post those results next week if there has been any change.
