Here is a good article I found regarding water retention and medications.

I was surprised to see that Ibuprofen is a culprit.

I've heard that banana's (potassium) and raisens are good foods to help retention of water. You might want to doublecheck that tho, cuz I can't swear to it.

If this is becoming alarming don't hesitate to talk to your Dr about it - at least to rule out kidney/adrenal issues. Maybe he would put you on a water pill if that would help (I know just what you want....ANOTHER pill to take!)

I hope you can get to the bottom of this soon, and that there is a simple solution.

You are always in my prayers my dear friend....
