Hello all, I know I have not posted in a while, but I have been just crusing along at 190 a total of 94lbs. So here is my weirdness... I woke up thanksgiving morning.... with Both hands swollen, so bad my rings do not fit. My mid joints on both hand are hurting, similar to arthritis pain (not that I know about arthritis, other than what my mother tells me.) Today They are still swollen, and my knees and feet are swollen. Has this happend to you? I am 14months out, and have had 1 kidney stone 20 days out, other than that no problems what so ever. So has this happened to you? Thanks for any responses. Lots of hugs to everyone. Connie

Did yo possibly eat something that would have caused a reaction? I know even now if I eat things that are high in sodium, that will happen to me...my hands, feet and lower legs will be swollen and tight. I would call the doctor just to be safe, though.

Did you eat ham for Thanksgiving, Ham used to make me swell all over and worse in my ankles. Ham has sooo much sodium. Your Dr. can give you a water pill to help if this is jus****er retainage. I hate how all that swelling makes me feel. You should call you Dr. Monday and sooner if it keeps getting worse. Judye

Well, it was worse yesterday. My knees are totally stiff. The swelling has gone down considerable today. I cannot attribute this to anything I ate different. But I am going to call the doc in the am just to be on the safe side. Hope everyone had a great holiday! Connie

When I have allergic reactions, I swell too! Two weeks ago, I had a reaction to the CPR dummy (latex). My mouth swelled up and a rash appeared on my face immediately. Now, I still have a rash on my back. Have you been around any latex lately? Hugs, Becky
