Hello again Heidi, I also got/get the swelling . My hands always swell, my left hand takes a size 15 and the right is 13 and like Russell I have some beautiful turquoise rings laying in a box. My left leg would swell up very bad but they called it water retention and I asked, " why don't I have retention in both legs"? The answer was . I will order you some fluid pills. ha ha . Typing makes my hands burn more but I like this site. I hope your swelling goes down without discomfort and you get sleep tonight Heidi. Gentle hugs and we are pulling and praying for you. Later Gator
