Friends, Apparently swollem lower legs and feet are something that just goes along with PD ? Beyond the use of support hose, I can't seem to find a Dr. that is at all concerned. Gp says feet up and wear the support hose. Neuros say this is not part of the neurological aspect of PD. My Cardiologist ran ultra-sound to make sure that there were no clots present and the prescribed "Lasix" and potassium pills. All of this seemed to do little but aggrivate my already frequent trips to the bathroom. My legs still swell up and my feet don't want to go back in my shoes once I take them off. Socks or even sweat pants leave a decided impression, and they still bother me. It would be nice if I could keep them up, but this is just not practical. Anybody have similar problems? Have you found a way to conquer the swelling? Or .... Oh well, just part of the PARKIN Space I'm in ?
