Foot swelling and tired legs

[Cal]

Hello to everyone,

Hope you are doing well.

Jim is doing much better. He had his non anyuersum SAH 12 weeks ago Saturday.

His feet are a little swollen in the morning and his legs tire very easy.

Does anyone else have these symptoms?

Thanks and stay well

Hi Cal

If I do too much my legs get like lead weights and I become extremely clumsy my legs and feet do tend to puff up a bit by the end of the day as well but are normally fine if I put them up for half an hour. Tell Jim that I'm glad he's doing so well.

Hi Cal,

It's lovely to hear that Jim is doing well .... send him my best wishes...

Have you mentioned to the Doctor that Jim has swelling in his feet? There can be many causes for this. I tend to suffer more from swelling hands, but this mainly happens during the summertime....I've had it since pregnancy/birth of my kids, so it's been with me for a while. Like Jan, if I've been on my feet for a long time, then they can get a bit puffy....I've always put mine down to fluid retention.

Here's a web link that might be helpful to anybody that's suffering the same.

Janet and Karen,

Thank you both for your well wishes and as always your quick response.

Karen, you are a wealth of knowledge on so many subjects!

Jim has not mentioned this to his doctor. After he is up in the morning the swelling goes down.

We have an appointment with the neuro suregon on Monday March 3rd and then will make an appointment with his GP.

Janet, Jim does have more of the leg heaviness when he overdoes things also.

Stay well!

Cal
