Decaf tea is even worse. Watermelon does the same thing. If I eat a banana in the evening, that will do it too.
Now I just read that celery acts like a diuretic too. I'm going to stop eating it and see if that helps.
Water: Cold water from a drinking fountain will usually be a problem. But if I drink a large glass of ice water at Golden Corral with a big meal, it doesn't have any effect. It's just cold water on an empty stomach that bothers me.

It seems like this might be the time to consider a medication to make the swelling go down or a medical procedure to do the same. One must take in fluid and secrete fluid. That is how we are wired and plumbed, and sometimes our plumbing gets clogged. That is when we call a plumber for people; a urologist.
