@newfiesgirl1 If you haven't tried it, lymphatic massage may help your edema issue. That is what helped me a lot a while back. Also, I had to switch out a medication that was known to sometimes cause edema.

Hey Ginger, Thanks for that suggestion...I'll look into that. I should mention that I do take by prescription 180mg of water pills each day. So with that being said, even with that amount of water pills being taken each day, I've still got such severe edema in my legs, or I should say mainly my right leg and quite honestly my primary care doctor has done NOTHING to find out why it is that way. The results of the ultrasound were skewed and all she said about that was we could redo the ultrasound. My primary care clinic has messed up on more than one occasion and on more than one issue with me lately so I'm seriously thinking of switching clinics altogether. Ugh....I just hate the thought of doing so tho...but I know it needs to be done, either that or I need to talk to the clinic director and see that changes are made. I don't know at this point I guess what I have the energy for.
