@dawn_giacabazi, I was struck by your consumption of 150 ounces of mineral enhanced water. That's nearly 20 8-ounce glasses. Isn't that a lot? Have your labs shown a shortage of sodium? Or potassium? My nephrologist advised me to back off even plain water because I was "overloading" at 48 ounces a day. Because I am hypokalemic, I get cramps in my calves, usually during the night. That has been relieved recently by drinking pure coconut water (not coconut milk), which is high in potassium -- about a pint a day, replacing the prune juice I loved, plus a quart of filtered spring water.
