So many ways to fight edema and I will try them all

I'm doing a lot of exercise with my feet and legs today and lying down as much as I can. I'm trying - still - to get rid of edema and maybe having some good results.

I exercise in bed with my feet elevated above my head. Foot circles, foot pumping, and side to side moves are supposed to help get the fluid to leave my puffy feet. I put my feet up on the wall for a few minutes at a time when I can stand it.

I also have three pairs of socks on. One is up to the knee. The second is folded over my ankle to squeeze fluid from that area. The third is folded over the toe area and halfway up my foot. I won't take these off until tomorrow morning and then will see how much they have helped.

I'm drinking:

  • green tea
  • pepperment tea
  • barley water
  • plain water
  • lime and ginger tea

as much as I can stand.

I'm eating mostly tiny meals of protein. I have both liver and chicken today.

Last night I found out I can get about 10 chicken livers cooked well for 75 cents usd at one of my local restaurants. It should take 30 minutes to get there and back. Last night it took 2 hours since I walked so slowly and had to keep stopping.

My photo for this post is the "Fish Wall" in Coronado California. It is the first photo I thought of that had a circle in it. I needed it since this is the prompt word I am using for the

#OC is the new tag for @ocd, it just stands for Original Content. #POSH is an @ocd initiative, Proof Of SHare. It is specifically about sharing the post on Twitter, so if you use the tag #posh and share the post on Twitter, OCD will give a larger vote

Go go girl! Hope the edema leaves you soon. Keep trying! As long as there is a slightest improvement, it is an improvement! Like dory said in nemo, just keep swimming, just keep swimming.
I like the fish wall, very unique :)

I'm glad you are up and around again and have improvised compression stockings for yourself ... I still want you to see a doctor, but I don't know how easy or hard that is for you ...
