Anyone take a diuretic (hydrochlorot (HCTZ) ) for hypertension?

Question

I recently started taking it. Only I am baffled about something,...I have been suffering for a long time with heartburn. Since I started taking the med it has caused the heartburn to stop. I know that sometimes heartburn is a camoflage for heart problems. I do have arrythmia,..but haven't had an EKG in years,..having one done within this next month though. Has anyone else experienced this with this med? Do you think it is possible that it could have been a heart problem and not heartburn?
any help much appreciated

Answer 1

This is a loop diuretic and Sodium is secreted carry with it water and excessive urination takes place, decreasing water volume in your blood. This will reduce BP or edema of legs/face or in CCF, etc.
I have already answered your question in summary.

I will try to keep it simple. Your metabolism is basically the rate at which your body burns calories to create energy. So the faster your metabolism, the faster you burn calories and the easier it is to lose unwanted weight. To boost your metabolism naturally you just need to eat the right foods.

You can sit down and literally eat a 1,000-calorie dinner and yet be absolutely starving just a few hours later and the reason is simple: Because your body didnt get what it needed in those 1,000 calories so it sends signals to your brain telling you to ingest more calories and thus, the late-night cravings. That means that the surest way to end those late-night cravings and keep your weight loss goals on track is to eat a more balanced, nutritious diet that actually gives your body what it needs.

It's VERY EASY to lose weight if you eat the right foods. Check out this video here: http://www.sexyjese.com - it will blow your mind.
