Guest guest Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 the tops of my feet swell all the time from everything from the weather, to drinking thew wrong kind of liquid. The look like they have their own little pillows! My doc lets me keep a water pill on hand so I can take if needed, stoddardtim <tstoddard@...> wrote: my hands and feet seem to swell up, more so in the am i dont know if this is normal or not. the pain still stays the same. has anyone else had thi problem. thanks tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 My swelling is happening in the afternoons. But the soreness is all day. Some one said it was because of barometric pressure. Is that true with RA? my hands and feet seem to swell up, more so in the am > i dont know if this is normal or not. the pain still stays the same. > has anyone else had thi problem. thanks tim > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ask because that's my > situation and one of the major reasons (actually, it might be the only > reason) I'm still in " official " diagnosis limbo. I don't swell very badly until evening, and then you can only notice if you know me. My knuckles do get hot, but not red. My rh dx'd me using the thing where he squeezes my joints and sees how many hurt. There's a scientific name for that, but I can't remember...
