Night time urination: Frequent urination at night could be a symptom of inadequate diuresis. If there is fluid in one's ankles during the day, at night, when the legs are elevated, fluid goes back into the circulation causing one to go the bathroom to urinate. Check your weights daily. If one gains 1-2 lbs/day, it is fluid that is being accumulated and more diuretics may be needed. See the doctor for more help.
