Doc's report....
I have a diagnosis for my swelling in my legs! It is called Venus Insufficiency. Or in other words, my venus are not working properly to pull the fluid up and out - caused by excessive weight and sitting ALOT. And dyuretics do not help in the long run, in fact they make it worse. So I was given a persciption for a pair of $96 old lady support hose - and when I say support hose, I ain't bluffing....These are, according to the fitter, sturdy enough to stand up to the roughest briar patch!!! As I lose more weight and as I get more mobile, the situation will improve.
Also got blood drawn to check the ole B12 and potassium and will know in a couple of days about B12 shots and potassium supplements.
Also heard a very good wicked rumor, that your doc can perscrip****er aerobics for you and INSURANCE WILL PAY!!!! So I called the doc back and will let you know what I find out. Even heard they will come to your house (or pool) and do the aerobics there!!! Pray hard!
