Re: Foot and ankle edema--
Carol Gray--re: foot and ankle edema--Peter has this pretty regularly, not severe but noticeable and makes it hard to put on socks :-( The internist said it was "dependent edema" (in the sense, I think, I something "depending" or "hanging down") and caused by a sedentary lifestyle. He said not to worry about it unless it progressed above the ankle, which it hasn't , so far. Don't know if this relates to you, but for what it's worth---- Camilla Flintermann, CG for Peter,76/6 in Oxford,OH
