Default Looking for Herbal Diurectic Info

Howdy Gang, Unfortunately due to severe drug allergies (anaphylaxis), I am unable to take any Sulfa or Thyazide type diuretics. If I did, it would result in another emergency trip to the hospital, epi-pens, etc...

I have already tried Alfalfa, Dandelion, Asparagus and have mixed the Dadelion caps with Asparagus caps together. I have heard that Goldenrod is used in Europe as a diurectic(water pill) and is as potent as Lasix. Has anyone tried Goldenrod as a waterpill remedy? I have @ 12 lbs. of water weight on me as a side effect of medication I'm on. Not to worry, I'm under Dr's supervision. I used to take Edecrin until someone removed it from the market. If any D.O.s', M.D.s' herbalists have any thoughts, I'd be most grateful.

There is a great tea at any health food store called Detox Tea...it has several things in it and will make you pee! I have even bought it at the grocery! Good luck! Hawthorne berry also works.
