I was in a terrible place earlier this year with the pandemic. I had never known that I had edema in both my legs. Talking about over 30 years of being given Antibiotics and off the feet. Well, this year, I found out when I could have my leg problem looked at, found out it was edema and weeping edema. And I recently got an cath done for the legs, a new procedure, painful but so worth it. They unclogged veins and checked for DVT at the same time and no DVT. No more guessing what is going on, when I have to get gauze to collect the fluid drainage. Feel so much better, needle places still hurt, this was done on Friday, October 30. Always be proactive and pray for answers that someday you will get. I know edema is familiar to many here. It is not a cure, but at least they have ways to check this stuff out. Had MRI and Echo to find this all out. The pain is worth finding the answer.
