👉🏼👈🏼 what diuretic should I drink to fill up my bladder

Tea!!

That's my go-to. Coffee is also a decent one or any beverage with caffeine in it. Soda can be good too, but I personally don't like the carbonation.

*sorry for the late reply!

Hey all!

I really wanted to sit down and write this out, just in case it might help anyone. Since so many people were so kind to help with suggestions when I was suffering with that UTI, I found a couple of other options that may be beneficial to some people.

It might be a little long, so I'll put it under a read more.

I'm still not 100% back to normal, but I've done repeated urine tests at the doctor, and there isn't even an infection anymore. It seems to just be a really stubborn inflammation, and it was recently getting to a point where I was really just mentally and emotionally wiped from it. It was never super bad, but obviously if you feel uncomfortable non-stop for weeks it really gets to you eventually, and last Saturday I was in tears again just from the frustration, especially since we're due to go away in a few weeks and I just want it to be gone. Nothing I got from the pharmacy did anything.

Now, my boyfriend's mother, while not a doctor or anything, is very good with researching natural remedies due to her own ongoing ailments and reluctance to rely too much on medications. A lot of what she knows is very 'old-wives-tale' style knowledge, but especially when it comes to more natural options, she knows a lot about the history of the plant and how old cultures would have used them.

Please keep in mind that everything I'm suggesting may not suit you. These have helped me immensely in the last couple of days, but they certainly haven't cured me. They may also be things you're allergic to, or if you take medications, may react with them. So please take everything I say with a pinch of salt, and common sense.

So these are what she suggested:

The three main things I've been taking are dandelion (flower and leaves), plantain herb (leaves) and nettle (I just bought this in tea bags).

I brew a tea mixture from them, and they've helped so much already. Apparently they're all diuretics, and help with urinary support and health. But they've given me a lot of relief considering they're all just plants you probably already have everywhere in your garden.

Both dandelion and nettle can be bought as regular tea bags, so that might be easier, especially since there's special preparation for nettles due to their sting.

This might be more common knowledge that I think, but it's certainly something I didn't know about, and I definitely didn't realise how potent they are. And since the majority of plant-related uti advice I think most people hear about it 'drink cranberry stuff', there's not as much emphasis on these.

ALSO. I just started this today as well, but this is something I did know about - eating raw garlic. I've just been chopping a few cloves on some buttered bread, and it's delicious. Garlic is also pretty brilliant for a lot of things, so even just in general I would recommend eating it like that. Or with some honey, whatever gets it down for you if you're able to eat it.

I'd really really recommend if anyone suffers from bladder issues at all, please do some research on this, because even in a matter of like, two days, it's really boosted my mood and general wellbeing.

Obviously I'm still going to the doctor. That's not ruled out, and I'd never tell anyone to rely only on plant remedies when medication could do more. But these have just helped a lot in the meantime.

Thanks to all of you who helped me before, I just wanted to add something back! c:

I think it’s so funny that the lil info sheet that comes with my newest medication basically says ‘you need to take two of these pills a day but NOT at the same time or you will PISS your brains out and then DIE of thirst’

I started a new playlist on the Distortion MTL channel specifically for shows I’ve filmed in the United States.

The first of these in Diuretic who killed it at Haus of Yarga last week!

Interstitial Cystitis diuretic and flushing supplement tip

If you're a beverage goblin like me who is planning a friend outing (with beverages! (non-alcoholic)), please time the dosage of your D-mannose + vitamin B-6 + vitamin C (plus other supplements you're taking that are possible diuretics), otherwise, you WILL pee yourself (I just did lmao). Especially if you already have incontinence issues (I used to but through better sexual practices, pelvic floor physical therapy, and a lot of therapy, I don't have it that much anymore).

--

Please note that Interstitial Cystitis (IC) has no cure but it's all about holistic symptom management that works best for your personal goals and lifestyle <3 it's painful, it's hard, I'm sorry, but you all got this.

--

OKAY now I'm gonna talk about D-mannose, this tip, this incident, and... why you gotta plan for stuff:

D-mannose is really great for UTI prevention and has anti-inflammatory properties for chronic cystitis and inflammation in the bladder. It prevents UTIs by blocking E. Coli (one of the main pathogens responsible for UTIs) from adhering to urinary tract epithelial cells (read more here and do your own PubMed search).

It can help with chronic inflammation, even without possible infection, because it helps maintain the integrity of the bladder wall (allowing the bladder wall to heal - which is so important if you are chronically inflamed!). D-mannose does this by promoting the growth and production of collagen and proteoglycans, while also reducing the activity of neutrophils (the white blood cells that *attack*) and increasing the activity of macrophages (the white blood cells that are more of the clean-up-crew and not so much *attack*).

So yeah, it's an awesome supplement to take! You can definitely consume it naturally through certain foods, including cranberries, but I'd recommend a concentrated dose in the form of a supplement. I often take D-mannose after exercise and sex, and I take it daily in the morning with all my other meds (it does kind of upset my IBS-D but that is a different post for a different time).

--

I often take D-mannose with vitamin B-complex and vitamin C because it helps flush out my urinary tract! The added vitamins (and other people take other supplements with D-mannose) are diuretics that make you produce more urine so basically you pee more. Great for flushing out unwanted bacteria after D-mannose has (hopefully) done its trick.

--

Anyway, please time when you take all of it especially if you're going out with a friend and you have water, a fun drink, a drink for energy, another fun drink (and soup! *facepalm*)... and you lose track of time because you're having too much fun with your friend.

--

Should I keep writing about my adventures with supplements, diets, indignation at my condition, and other things I've tried for IC? Including all the anecdotes I have?

[doppelganger-ana]

Should I get water pills?

I know we all recently learned that coffee is a laxative and oil is also a laxative and the new Starbucks drink is an ultra laxative that made people shit their pants but I need people to know a few more things.

Decaf coffee is still a laxative, because it's not the caffeine that has a laxative effect but some other compound.

Chicory coffee is a stronger laxative than regular coffee and will make you take a shit within minutes of drinking it if you experience the laxative effect. If you don't want your coffee to make you shit as much check that it doesn't have chicory as a filler in. It also tastes worse with chicory.

Not everyone experiences the laxative effect and you can drink coffee and be completely fine.

Coffee is also a diuretic (makes you pee) and if you have vulnerable kidneys coffee is kinda bad, actually, and if you drink it you should accompany every cup of coffee with two cups of water.

Coffee will have a different effect on you if you take stimulant type adhd medication than it does off the medication.

Coffee is also an appetite suppressant, and I'm not sure if it's the caffeine or some other compound like the laxative effect, but it does make you feel satiated.

Coffee, specifically caffeine, dehydrates you. Decaf won't have the same effect in this case, but it has been found that consuming caffeinated coffee will make period cramps worse because it dehydrates you.

Coffee doesn't cause heart palpitations for everyone, unless it's very strong, but if you're drinking a single espresso shot latte and you get strong palpitations or even painful palpitations, something is wrong with your heart and you need to get that checked out.

Coffee is an actual drug that can be addictive, and withdrawal includes migraines, nausea, loss of appetite, cramps and extreme fatigue. Coffee is not a particularly dangerous drug so weaning yourself of it is safe and probably better for your health than going cold turkey.

Decaf won't make withdrawal symptoms go away because it's the caffeine specifically that you're withdrawing from.

Consume coffee safely and pay attention to the effects it has on you. Most of the above mentioned effects should occur within the first half hour of consuming the coffee. If it occurs after an hour it's probably something else or you have a ridiculously slow metabolism.

Consume your beverages safely my loves.

After a lengthy discussion, Dr. Lue said that Den is at a very substantial risk for infection from knee replacement surgery. This could adversely effect his LVAD and cause major complications, including stroke, loss of limb to name a few, and all the way up to death. He told us he would not do any surgery on Den.…

Understanding Hydrodiuril: Uses, Dosage, and Potential Side Effects Hydrodiuril, also known by its generic name hydrochlorothiazide, is a diuretic medication commonly prescribed to manage conditions like hypertension (high blood pressure) and edema (fluid retention). If you're curious about what Hydrodiuril is, how it works, its uses, dosage, and potential side effects, you've come to the right place. This article will provide you with a comprehensive overview of Hydrodiuril, enabling you to make informed decisions about its use. [caption id="attachment_63686" align="aligncenter" width="1280"] HydroDIURIL[/caption] What Is Hydrodiuril? Hydrodiuril, or hydrochlorothiazide, belongs to a class of medications known as thiazide diuretics. It works by increasing urine production, which helps the body eliminate excess salt and water. This, in turn, can lower blood pressure and reduce fluid buildup in conditions like edema. Uses of Hydrodiuril Hydrodiuril serves several essential medical purposes. Below, we'll explore its primary uses and the conditions it helps treat. Hypertension (High Blood Pressure) One of the most common applications of Hydrodiuril is the management of hypertension. High blood pressure is a widespread health concern and a significant risk factor for heart disease, stroke, and other complications. Hydrodiuril can help lower blood pressure by reducing fluid volume in the bloodstream, making it easier for the heart to pump blood. Edema (Fluid Retention) Edema refers to the abnormal accumulation of fluid in various body tissues, leading to swelling. Conditions like congestive heart failure, liver disease, and kidney disorders can cause edema. Hydrodiuril acts as a diuretic to increase urine output, reducing excess fluid buildup and alleviating edema. Kidney Stones Prevention In some cases, healthcare providers may prescribe Hydrodiuril to help prevent the formation of certain types of kidney stones. By increasing urine output, it can reduce the concentration of minerals that contribute to stone formation. Dosage and Administration The appropriate dosage of Hydrodiuril and how it should be administered can vary depending on the medical condition being treated. It's crucial to follow your healthcare provider's instructions carefully. Potential Side Effects As with any medication, Hydrodiuril can have side effects. It's essential to be aware of these potential effects while using this medication. Common side effects include: Increased Urination Since Hydrodiuril is a diuretic, increased urination is a common and expected side effect. This is how the medication helps eliminate excess fluids from the body. Dehydration Excessive urination can lead to dehydration if you don't maintain adequate fluid intake. It's essential to stay hydrated while taking Hydrodiuril. Electrolyte Imbalance Hydrodiuril can lead to imbalances in electrolytes such as potassium and sodium. Your healthcare provider may monitor your electrolyte levels and recommend dietary changes or supplements if necessary. Low Blood Pressure While Hydrodiuril is used to treat high blood pressure, in some cases, it can cause blood pressure to drop too low, leading to dizziness or fainting. Allergic Reactions Although rare, some individuals may experience allergic reactions to Hydrodiuril, such as skin rash, itching, swelling, or severe dizziness. Precautions and Considerations Before starting Hydrodiuril, it's important to discuss the following precautions and considerations with your healthcare provider: Inform Your Healthcare Provider Make sure your healthcare provider is aware of your complete medical history, including any allergies, kidney problems, or liver conditions. Medication Interactions Discuss all other medications, supplements, or herbal products you are taking with your healthcare provider. Some drugs may interact with Hydrodiuril, affecting its effectiveness or increasing the risk of side effects. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, or if you are breastfeeding, consult your healthcare provider before using Hydrodiuril. They can help assess the potential risks and benefits. Frequently Asked Questions What is Hydrodiuril used for? Hydrodiuril, also known as hydrochlorothiazide, is primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and reduce fluid retention (edema) in conditions such as heart failure, kidney disorders, and liver disease. How does Hydrodiuril work? Hydrodiuril is a diuretic, which means it helps your body eliminate excess salt and water by increasing urine production. This, in turn, reduces fluid buildup and lowers blood pressure. Is Hydrodiuril a prescription medication? Yes, Hydrodiuril is a prescription-only medication. It should be taken under the supervision and guidance of a healthcare provider. What are the common side effects of Hydrodiuril? Common side effects of Hydrodiuril may include increased urination, dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, low blood pressure, and rare allergic reactions. It's important to discuss any side effects with your doctor. Can I take Hydrodiuril if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding? If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, it's crucial to consult your healthcare provider before using Hydrodiuril. They can assess the potential risks and benefits. Should I take Hydrodiuril with or without food? Hydrodiuril can be taken with or without food. It's important to take it consistently in the same way each day. Can I drink alcohol while taking Hydrodiuril? Limiting alcohol consumption is advisable while taking Hydrodiuril, as excessive alcohol intake can affect blood pressure and increase the risk of side effects. Are there any drug interactions with Hydrodiuril? Yes, Hydrodiuril may interact with other medications or supplements. It's essential to inform your healthcare provider about all the drugs and supplements you are taking to avoid potential interactions. How long does it take for Hydrodiuril to start working? The onset of action of Hydrodiuril may vary from person to person. Some individuals may experience a reduction in blood pressure or fluid retention within a few hours, while others may take a few days to see results. What should I do if I miss a dose of Hydrodiuril? If you miss a dose of Hydrodiuril, take it as soon as you remember. If it's close to your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double up on doses. Conclusion: Hydrodiuril, or hydrochlorothiazide, is a valuable medication for managing conditions like hypertension and edema. While it offers several benefits, it's crucial to use it under the guidance of a healthcare provider, as it can have side effects and interactions with other medications. If you have questions about Hydrodiuril or its suitability for your specific medical situation, don't hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider. They can provide personalized guidance to ensure you receive the best possible care.

I literally asked my nurses if vitamin C can be considered a diuretic and they’re like “no.”

But I think it is. At least for me.

I am *also* drinking a lot of liquids so 🤷🏽‍♀️

But like it does have a diuretic effect somewhat, right? In large quantities?

Look, my body is sensitive and I notice things, and I also read papers and stuff on the internet. *annoyingly searches on PubMed and resists calling my doctor’s office out of spite*
