My sons weight gain is extreme fluid retention and all of his blood work is normal. Only lost about 25 of the 45 pounds he gained withe the help of diuretics.

What doctor did he go to that figured out it was water weight and prescribed diuretics?

I was prescribed a diuretic it took about a year but finally the “weight” is ANNOYINGLY coming off. It’s very slow. I’ve only lost about 10lbs of the 30 I gained. I have a scale that tells me my water % and when it’s up I know it’s inflammation.
