Thanks so much Renee, I am good now as far as the swelling goes it took a little over a week but that is partly my fault because I was not able to stay off my feet & have them up long enough to get swelling down before I had to be on them all over again & I kinda over did it so it all caught up as I expected it to and I just took a 24 hour nap lol. I still cant believe I slept so long it's rare I sleep 4hrs straight let alone an entire 24 guess I needed it tho. Glad your doing better to since surgery & everything went smooth take it easy thinking of you all hope your all having sweet dreams & happy days

I get the swelling too if I am immobilized for too long a period. I am definitely a "textbook" case (ha...like there is such a thing) when it comes to the move it or lost it thing. I am definitely much worse if I don't spend a lot of time moving around. Even when I sit and "rest"...I have to keep my hands and feet moving periodically to prevent a flare up.

Take care and I hope you feel better soon.

Hey Heidi,
I can sorta relate. My fingers are subject to swell so much at times that I gave up on my rings.(I got a great collection of hand made silver and turquios.)
Also can only wear glog type shoes. A bummer for sure...
