Not trying to be a hypochondriac but having weird chest pains on the left side today its like that feeling you get when you stand on a ledge and look over keeps coming and going today

You have bad anemia and high heart rate.  It isn't something to mess around with.

One of the most commonly prescribed thiazide-like diuretics is chlorthalidone. Studies show that it may be the best diuretic to control blood pressure and prevent death. Indapamide is another thiazide-like diuretic.

Good advices.

I'd go for Calomel - might be hard to get hold of, but on the upside it'll cure Syphilis at the same time...

Ever try the OTC stuff like "Diurex"?
Not sure if effective, just wondering...

You need a general practice doctor to monitor your blood work.  The diuretics can affect your kidneys and potassium levels and if your other labs are off to begin with you might be higher risk of that happening.  You already tried "winging it" on your own last time and you said you felt horrible.  Why try it again?

I didn't wing anything I simple started dieting and drying out too early and went to far then couldn't rebound 198 was just too low too quickly body could not recover overnight lesson learned. This time it is going to be a 24hr prep at the most 215lbs at the lowest hopefully heavier

You said you took some OTC diuretic and lost like 20 lbs of fluid in 5 days or something like that? Then said you felt like crap. Doesn't seem right. Why do you want to do a stronger prescription pill - to lose more than 20 lbs (or whatever it was) of fluid? You'll only feel worse.

I think Bhank is on to something.

Why torture yourself with months of dieting?

Do it all in 24 hours...or not even diet at all. 

Just skip that last hamburger bun on the Big Mac & Cheese...done...hit the stage.

I look way better now than I did one stage more vascular more cut and 15-20lbs heavier doing a long prep of depleting is a horrible idea I am going in full. I will be training and eating regular 2 days prior. Last 24 hours will cut food to let digestive track empty and midsection to slim. Last 24 hours I will cut water. That is it not going to lose my gains doing a bunch of nonsense this time to make a weight class I don't belong in

To answer your question, I don't. I suggest you find a primary care physician who can keep track of all your conditions and properly prescribe a medication for edema. Don't be surprised if the doctor suggests you see a cardiologist and perhaps a nephrologist. Edema can be a sign of life threatening health issues such as congestive heart failure, kidney disease and liver disease. It can also be caused by something as simple as your diet. In the meantime, try elevating your feet.

He should listen to you, but he won't.

Spanks has obvious signs of heart and kidney problems.

The fact that he goes to an Orthopedic Doctor to discuss his edema shows that he is in fact mentally challenged.

are you 10 weeks out currently?

how is the edema? is this a possible side of effect from GH abuse?
