Foot Swelling

So I've mentioned several times how my feet have been swollen lately, to the point that I had to buy new shoes.  They are always swollen; it's just a matter of HOW swollen.  Sometimes it merely looks like I have cankles, but often they are so bad that it makes me and MJ do a double-take.

Last night, while he was very sweetly giving me a foot rub, MJ said that my ankles look like the scene from the end of Big Trouble in Little China, when one of the bad guys explodes.  So in case any of you haven't seen it, here you go:


Fortunately, none of the rest of me looks like this guy!

I'm so sorry to hear about your poor feet! Elevate and drink, drink, drink! And then drink some more! While a bit counterintuitive, the drinking really helped my swelling. I know you are probably already on top of this, but just thought I would throw it in!! Take care!

Yes, I'm drinking approximately my body weight in water every day, it seems! Unfortunately, aside from making me sprint to the bathroom every 5 minutes, it isn't really helping too much. :(
