Edema - Tired of the Barrell Calves
My doctor took me off Lasix, because of the risk for dehydration. So that hasn't helped. I am going to get a wedge to put my feet up, so I can elevate them daily. That's my plan for now. I see my pcp next week, so will ask about the socks, too. Thanks!

I'm down 120 pounds - thanks to RNY! Working on the next 25. Then I'll tackle more...

Start: 487 lbs (8/07) Lost 81 lbs pre op on South Beach. 406 lbs at surgery (6/08). 179 post op, by 2011. I lost 308 lbs. Gained 98 while pregnant (2012-13) lost all but 25. My goal is to be 179 again!
Two years after that....
I could not be happier.
A friend of mine has the same issue and she says massage helps with the circulation, she wraps them for a while each day to so the fluid moves out of her leg! Hope you find some answers
