Grant,

I've REALLY joined you in the water retention club... My legs blew up and were retaining about 3 lbs. of water. I am currently on 80 mg of Furosemide to get rid of the excess water, and 20 mg of Potassium to reduce cramps and keep electrolytes up.

Damned sedentary lifestyle!!! :-(


It's hell isn't it? took me weeks to get it off and still fight it all the time.
Cheers everybody

Good Morning my friends from atop the Rockies.

Keep up the good fight Grant and Doc, we don't want any letters from either of your relatives. That 45 pounds could be from those America's Test Kitchen recipes.......they're REALLY good.

I can't wait for Spring so I can get back to re-rehabilitating my blown left calf and learning to walk somewhat normally again.

I want to throw away my new cane.

Cheers, an Beers in 8 hours.

Well, I'm WAY TOO YOUNG to be having these issues... (47 going on 16...) So, no letter is coming from my family anytime soon - if I can help it.

My legs are getting better. I think I'm going to drop to 40 mg Furosemide, and 10 mg Potassium today.

BevMo! has my Jager on sale. So, I'm heading over there today to pick up a 1.75 L bottle for $31.00. :-)

When I was on chemo I was hit by horrible
edema. Now a-days my lower legs, feet, and
ankles look like I was crossed with a leopard.
I have brown spots all over. The important
thing is that after the swelling goes away
every thing starts working again with out all
the side effects. Good luck with it.

Well I tried Mike's beer. Interesting, but not sure it travelled well. Certainly was a little cloudy, but was fairly strong, good flavour, and a yeasty aftertaste. Not bad for a home brew Mike, well done :-)


Ooeer, can't wait! Regular beer o'clock here, cheers:)
