I have rheumatoid arthritis and sometimes when things are bad I retian fluid. My doctor gave me 40 mg of furosemide. It works well but keeps me running to the restroom. LOL! Which, of course, is the whole point.

Immediate cramps in hands, legs, feet. Potassium levels dropped, kidney "bun" numbers got very bad...spent two days in hospital recuperating...After many many years, diuretics and my kidneys are not getting along...facing possible heart transplant to boot.
