In the past 3 days i have randomly gained 8 lbs in water retention. organic water pills aren't working. what can i do?

See your doctor: If you have gained that much weight you need to see your doctor asap. I'm not certain what "organic" water pills are, but a more potent, traditional diuretic may be needed.
