I am not a doctor...but Insulin and Avandia(glymperid) make me retain water....really bad...so bad I had to stop taking my insulin...it started effecting my breathing like I was drowning....I was told that there is nothing they can do for me....I was like 1 out of 500,000 people that insulin has a severe side effect. My body is so insulin resistant it does nto good....even taking glymperide does help my body(cells) use the insulin, the cellular structure changes to where it retains or allows the insulin and glucose to cross through......but it does not like to let the water out.....no alternative I was told....plus it is beating up my lymphatic system as well......good luck...if you find a good doc, maybe an herbal doc we have have luck.
