    Check the labels and don't use generic information from this site. Your diary shows 4 oz of deli turkey, but no sodium.

    Deli sliced turkey can be high in sodium, as the mineral is added for flavoring and to help preserve the meat over time. A 2 ounce serving of deli sliced turkey provides 620 milligrams of sodium, which comprises 27 percent of the daily suggested intake of 2,300 milligrams.

    You don't need advice from the internet, you need a doctor's advice. Taking any kind of diuretic can be extremely dangerous. You should NEVER take one without a doctor's advice.

    Best advice... You can then look at your diet when you've sorted out the oedema. good luck!

    You should ask a doctor.

    Nobody on the Internet is qualified to give the kind of advice you need.
