RE: swollen legs/Darlene.

[Guest guest]

Hi,

My dr tells me to loose wait, which I agree but I don't think that is he cause for swelling or for the pain! there are time when both my ankles hurt and I do my "penguin walk" as I call it, rolling from side to side. When I go to sleep, it takes me a while to find a position where, I have no pain. I have lost a lot of faith in dr's because all they can tell me is that" you have to live with it". Okay, but give me something to make it easier to live with it, and they don't!

Hi Pomy,

I have never been diagnosed with MS but I have had trouble

with swollen legs and ankles all my life. It seems to run in my

family -- just another reason to think my Sarc has been there all

my life????? I know the swelling can be caused by many things,

but it is a problem. My legs hurt all the time and I cannot stand

for very long at all........do you have this problem also?? Have

you talked to your Doctor about it? Mine just tells me to cut

down on all salt and exercise............(1) I eat VERY LITTLE

salt and (2) I do not have enough energy to exercise anymore.

I used to all the time. Keep us posted on your condition.
