Elephant legs

How bad is everyone's swelling?  My feet and ankles are so swollen now.  The tops of my feet hurt to the touch.  I can't get over how much blood is pulsing through our bodies!

Re: Elephant legs

  • You mean like this??  Yeah.  It sucks!!!  I'm pretty miserable by the end of the day at work.  I am now wearing flip flops b/c nothing else fits...  Only two more months.  He he.  I think I can, I think I can!!!! Wink

  • I get cankles, but not this swollen yet!  When I asked my Doc, she said if my legs started to ache or hurt, then was the time to consider compression stockings...

  • Yes! My ankles are so swollen and it didnt even start until we started traveling. And now i can hardly stand up for an hour before my feet start to hurt and my ankles swell.. i am thinking about getting compression socks myself. 
  • Me! Me! Me! From sitting in my desk all day, my legs are sausages, and I get the cankles. I stand by the end of my work day, and as soon as I get home, I sit in my lazy boy and crank that thing all the way back and prop my feet up. I'm hoping Minnesota decides to take a Spring turn here soon because I am growing out of my winter shoes!!!
