Good job!  I feel your pain about walking in the rain. The first few years after my DS I walked 4 to 8 times a day...changed my wardrobe to include 2 pairs of BLOGS (brown and black) and 4 raincoats. I live on the east coast and we get a lot of rain and wintery mix. I'll tell you about walking my route through the snow and ice sometime.  lol

Woke up with no swollen ankles.  Woot hoot! They did swell a little today, but nothing like the past 2 weeks.

vites: all in

fluids: 100 oz.

Yay! Sounds like it might be a side effect of the Reclast after all?  

Not sure yet. I stopped some new vites, upped the protein by 60 grams per day, added another 16 oz of plain water.

If the ankles stay down for a few weeks, I'll reintroduce one item at a time to see what happens.

Which new vites do you suspect?  Interesting...
