Don't you just love how they can't figure out what to do when your symptoms don't conform to their expectations? "Uh, your vitals don't support this recommendation, but I still think you should take diuretics, because every woman over 40 who's carrying some curves should have high blood pressure... even though yours isn't... er, still..." Heh. I'm glad your readings were good! You no doubt put your feet up when you get the chance - I've had swollen ankles for ten years, and the only thing they can come up with is edema, too - and no idea what to do for it. I wish you the very best of luck, and also with working on the weight loss. It's always good to be healthier - I just hate that it too often seems the only thing the doctor sees is the weight, not the person. (((hugs)))
