I have a question that I hope someone here may be able to answer. I was not sure where to post this as the topics were inconclusive...
I am a 46 Year Old Male who had a Heart Attack back in March of 2000. I went through the Cath Procedure where 2 stints were placed in the Coronary Arteries of the heart. No bypass...
After the heart attack, I was placed on Atenelol, Lasix, and Aspirin on a per day basis...
It has been well over a year since this happened and I am wanting to get off the lasix. I have already taken myself off the Atenelol. I am also a Diabetic (Non-Insulin) taking Glucotrol XL 5mg daily. My sugar levels were staying around 200-300. Took myself off the Glucotrol and now my suagr levels are staying around the 120-140 range (near normal)...
I have been reading about the Dandelion Leaves that help with pulling fluid off your system (similar to Lasix buy with no side effects...
And information that anyone would be able to share about this Natural Diuretic would be greatly appreciated. I spoke with my cardiologist and of course he stated that I would need to stay on the Lasix the rest of my life. I feel this is BS. There is always an alternative...
Thank you and you have a great group here and will be reading much info from everyone...
