Diuretics for Fluid Retention

Currently trying to track down my oncologist to get the ok but wondering if anyone here has used Frudix tablets or something similar for fluid retention. Had it all through chemo and still going on. By the end of the day my ankles have muffin top!!

    @onemargie the muscles in my legs are sore and the bottoms of my feet get sorer as the day goes on. Spoke to the oncologist and she said I can try it for a week and see if it helps but she does expect if with my chemo and hopefully should be much better in a couple of weeks as essentially I’m only a week out of the chemo cycle.

    Bloody hell @"Kiwi Angel" love are they sore ? I’d be encouraging you to keep them elevated whenever you can have you heard from the oncol yet. You need to get those sorted for sure let me know how you go x
