Guest guest Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 If your feet & ankles swell up & when you push down on it the indentation of your finger takes a while to disappear it could be "pitting edema" check it out with Dr Love - he can show you what I mean. I'm just gratefull I don't have ascites yet (have no idea how ascites is pronounced) It sounds terrible. SuZiee <mcmama57@...> wrote: Pitting edema? Never heard that but ok! I'll ask about that too, once I get out of here and away from Dr. Fullof himself to Dr.I Love! Thanks!!Kiki"LIFE LOVES THE PERSON WHO DARES TO LIVE IT!""RIDE SAFE,RIDE FREE!

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 yeah Suz, thats exactly what happens, the 'staying" fingerprints.Always like that when you have water retention. But they always ask if im on a diuretic, i say no, but no one ever gives me one either! Asceties is exactly where sister Boo was, pre transplant, and that was a very scary thing, just reading about it, but strong Survivor that she is, she got past all that! thank God!

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 Now my doctor wants me to have an endoscopy. Doesn't sound like fun does it? He said he wanted me to get checked for varisces(sp?) I think I've got to start staying away from that guy, he keeps finding new things wrong with me. .SuZiee <mcmama57@...> wrote: yeah Suz, thats exactly what happens, the 'staying" fingerprints.Always like that when you have water retention.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 SuZie I had that done.. It doesn't hurt..Better to have them deal with the little buggers than you spending a week or more in hospital.. They had me on 3 differ diuretics.. Still swelled up like a ballooned.. They tapped my abdomen and drained 3 liters of fluid.. Very scary SuZie.. Yeah there for a while I was scared to death to sneeze.. Did it once and end up in the hospital for a week.. Very damn time I turned around I was bleeding from one end or the other.. Yuk!!! Kathy Boo -- Re: Pitting edema Now my doctor wants me to have an endoscopy. Doesn't sound like fun does it?
