I will admit now to being worried. I don’t like this at all. The swelling in my legs (now all the way up to the top, and showing a little in my wrists and face) is so severe that my movement is inhibited, and walking is becoming painful. Staying in any position for any length of time allows fluid to settle, meaning a change of position is very uncomfortable. Bending my legs now beyond 90 degrees is almost impossible with the fluid behind my knees.
My legs throb and ache and I don’t know where it will end or if it’s dangerous. My skin is sore and looks ready to burst. Paul has put the end of my bed up on blocks. I’ll report on the effectiveness of this in the morning. Can’t talk about this any more, it upsets me.
