I have had severe weight gain. 30lbs in one month of bloating. The doctor put me on Demedex for water retention. I have been on that for a week now and it has made no difference as of yet. This is ridiculous. I have so much swelling in my legs and feet that it feels like they are submerged in buckets filled with concrete. Yes my blood sugar has lowered significantly...but I am more miserable now then when my sugars were over 300. Is there anything else out there that is better than this?????
