Ok my health anxiety is off the rails. Although i have dealt with ankle swelling off n on since peri began ,this time I’m freaking out. Could be because in the past months 2 people in my world have been diagnosed w heart failure. In January we lost my hubby’s brother to this. They all smoked heavily n drank a lot, too. I’ve never smoked and only drink once every blue moon at a party.
It usually flares up when i am near to having a flow so I’m hoping that’s the cause. Just had a check up in April and all was well.
Thanks for letting me talk myself back from the ledge..any tips to stop it from happening would be appreciated!
i never had swollen ankles not even when i was preg. now i been getting elephant legs. the dr told me now that im older the veins dont sork as good so i swell. he felt no need to anything said it was normal. i guess if ur bp is fine and all that its just cuz we are going through " the change" urrrfgghhh .
