water retention
7 Answers
Last night and most days I could drink about 6-8 pints of water alone. Just before bedtime I could manage a trickle so today I have taken a fluid tablet .
I know in an half an hour I will go a lot but whilst that was the last tablet I really would not want to take these. My ankles are fine and my stomach is not too protruded - is there any thing natural out there that would make me go. Beer makes me go like hell but alas when it comes to the water no go. Thanks for any replies

Did it happen for the first time last night, or is this a regular thing?
Drink beer and you pass urine regularly, drink water and you don't.
Why have I got the feeling that this is a thread with an unsatisfactory ending?

Bananas are excellent diuretics. Perhaps you could do with a good liver and kidney cleanse. Try juicing beetroot, carrot, orange, lemon and ginger (in that order) and drinking a glass a day for 5-7 days. Also, if your bowels are not functioning efficiently, that can slow down the waterworks, and vice versa.
