Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Do you have diuretics? Sometimes airplanes do that to me...WOW. that's a lot of extra water to be carrying around. You may want to avoid carbs completely for a few days, and all extra sodium. If you have any prescribed diuretics, make sure you take them...if not, maybe get a gentle, over the counter one. Poor thing!! RobynnLLLORY@... wrote: Thanks Robynn, and now for the BAD news!

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Hi Robynn, thanks for the reply. Nope, I've never been on diuretics, and I do this every time I fly. But, we drove down to So. Cal. Sitting in a car for 7 hrs at a time I suppose can do it as well. I'm so scared I won't get this all peed out in time for my pre op appointment. Does it never end?!?!?

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 That's a lot, you are probably retaining fluid for some reason! Please keep us posted about what the doctor says.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Yeah...as soon as you have had your operation. Some people are still scared when they weigh in afterwards...but I don't feel that way. They can't take the operation away from me, it's already happened...and my body, hopefully, will cooperate with the operation...but it will do it at its own pace...
