Hello,
My gastric sleeve procedure in early June 2014 resulted in a weight loss of 27 lbs. within two months. As a result, the doctor recommended discontinuation of amiloride-hcl + hctz which controls my blood pressure and contains a diuretic. Since then, I have gained 4 lbs. My ankles are swollen by the end of the day. I am thinking that this is fluid retention. Has anyone else experienced this? Should I be concerned?
Thanks for your thoughts,
