watery eyes and spironolactone

[Guest guest]

hi everyone,

just have a few questions about spironolactone{dieretic}. Last

time I was at the docs. office he gave me this drug for my water

retention,especially around the eyes.He said it will not deplete my

potassiom like a reg. dieretic. I was reading the imformation sheet

that came with it and this medication is used to also treat high blood

pressure. I do not have high blood pressure should i be taking this

medicine. I also have been having trouble putting my contacts in

since my eyes are so watery, has any one had this problem,and has

anyone had laser surgery on your eyes since being dx.with leukemia and

have been on gleevec dx Oct.06
