You have that right about the compression stockings. What an uncomfortable mess. Hard to get on, cut into your legs, and then IF you can get them off, you spend the night in the bathroom. NO THANKs. My cardio isn't happy with me, oh well.

Melody L, I had something that sounds similar during a surgery recovery. They were on me to prevent DVT, but also helped with the edema. Or so they said. I never noticed anything different. Again, a pain in the patootie to get on and off.
