hi all

for whatever it may be worth
[fwimbw]
i recall that during the months pre-diagnosis
[i.e. most of 1988 and 1987]
i had become less and less active
and my ankles and feet became more and more swollen
[my blood pressure was probably high - i had also gained weight]
[[but did i go see a doctor? - noooo...]]

the swelling was such that
my feet had grown by one full shoe size

after diagnosis
after sinemetization
and the associated miraculous transformation from a slug to a busy-bee
the swelling disappeared completely
and i saw the outlines of veins on the top of my feet
for the first time in two years

and also

rigidity = a pd [type B-2.0054 (iiv)] symptom = possible under-medication?
