peach414144 I have been reading about neuropathy. I am happy you mentioned VEIN. I had some swelling in both ankles. I do not use salt. Thinking it could be hidden salt in diet. Thought it could be Heart. Saw Cardiologist. He looked without testing & said, "You have Neuropathy". I went to my Neurologist she said, "You do not have Neuropathy". She ran a Test on both upper & lower legs. NO Neuropathy. Apparently my veins are thinning cutting down circulation starting at my ankles. Age 85 & gravity. If I elevate my legs the swelling goes away. I am due for appt. with her & I will discuss further my condition with her. She recommended more walking. Keep the blood flowing. I told her I don't want to lose any limbs. She replied, you won't. I certainly hope she is right. I know there is a name for my condition but I forgot it. Will have to go back into my records I am sure it must be there. Maybe someone out there can relate to the same symptoms. Thanks Boomarang12
