Suggest A Natural Diuretic While Having Allergy For Beta Blockers And Many Medications

I am seeking a natural diuretic. My Cardio Dr. recommended lemon juice with hot water twice a day as he does not want to give me medication. Unfortunately after my bout with bleeding ulcers three years ago I have to stay away from tomatoes, and other acidy foods. I tried the lemon one day (2x) and unfortunately I got a lot acidity The reason why my doctor doesn t want to give me prescription meds is because 1) I have had allergic reactions to beta blockers and about 7 other meds. Since the range of my bp is borderline, what do you suggest

Urologist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As a specialist,i can understand your anxiety.
It would've been better,if you'd written age and other medication taken.
Your other reports,like ECG,echoscan and TMT,haven't been mentioned.
If you're on borderline H.T.and allergic to beta blockers,diuretics is safest.
The option is to be on regular monitoring of B.P,and treatment only if rise.
Kindly mention,what exactly are the allergic reactions and treatment taken.
If you've any doubts,send them as a direct question to me,with reports.
