Sassy, Fluid build up is not a problem for me, I am on a blood pressure pill with HCTZ in it. I have tried celebrex, advil, and glucosamine for the joint pain and stiffness. Nothing seems to work. It has also affected the me at work with bending down and lifting patients ( I am a nurse). I know the benefits of staying on it would be great. I just can't feel this way for 5 years. Thank you for your input.
