Hi DocJ, it's good to see someone also in the field. You bring up points, but should we not be concerned about gout with HCT or hyperlipidemia as well as hyperglycemia and hypercalcemia? As hyper-"GLUC", it is well known for its adverse effects. Are there not other diuretics with a better side effect profile? Also is it enough to simply stop estrogen formation/activity to get rid of water? Because what if ur doing that but ur still puffy and bloated? What should be the next step? Thanks.
