    Started taking this drug on Friday May 31st, 1 mg tablet. And today June 2nd have already lost 5 pounds of water weight. Feel really good and tightness in legs is getting better. Was taking lasic and it did not work at all except to cause bad leg cramps. Really pleased with this drug.

    Started taking Bumetanide this morning and have lost count of trips to the restroom. Working very well. So far I feel good on it. (I had been take furosemide and it did not work well for me and I didn't feel good on it from the beginning).

    I have taken this med 2 days in a row and can not walk, sit, or move without serious muscle and joint pain. My legs ankles and feet are still very swollen. I will not take it anymore.

    Water retension actually was so bad I could not lift my feet. With Bumetanide and the help of a PT I am stronger.
