They will probably try medications, especially a water pill to help drain off the fluids.

Ta, I have woken up with awful pain in my legs and feet. If I need to take water tablets aswell I'd better get some Tenalady knickers πŸ₯ΊπŸ˜œπŸ¦Ž

It has blipped off to an extent. I didn't want to do another post about it as I felt bad for going on about my drinking. I feel that I was misusing the forum somehow and I really don't need a top up of guilt! I now have an alcohol support worker counsellor . We've met 3 times and I think he was dropped from heaven to help me! Lovely manner, understanding, his cup brimith over with empathy. It was a big step for me to reach out for help. Thank you for your encouragement xx

It really means the world to me. My Gastroenterology Dr is another kettle of fish: no bedside manner or warmth. It's not hard to show care to another human being if you really mean it x

The Dr that was rude to me was horrible. Because I was so angry and upset the others have apologised. My main consultant is fantastic and totally bonkers so we get on very well πŸ₯³πŸ₯°πŸ˜
