She agreed that if I was having the amount of swelling I said I was that I needed something. When she looked at my list of medicines she said the number one side effect of my Nifedipine was swelling in the lower legs. Ah ha!!!! Bingo!!!! So I called my doctor, #1 to tell them to cancel charlie's appointment on Thursday and to tell them about the Nifedipine. But my sodium is always low. I will get it checked in August again.

Charlie is doing well. When I went in his eyes were the brightest I had seen them in a long time. Surgeon said the gall bladder had stones, sludge and very thick and inflamed. It really needed to come out. For awhile Charlie has been holding his stomach when he sneezes. He said it was just because of his surgery 7 weeks ago. I think now it was because of the gall bladder. I sure hope he can get home and stay home now. I am tired.
