A member asked:
What blood and urine tests can i do to determine if i am experiencing water retention?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Weight: Measuring weight with an accurate scale, on a regular basis is an easier way to detect water retention than blood or urine tests. In fact blood and urine tests may remain normal in many types of water retention.
