Maven, I hope the swelling is getting better but if not maybe this is something you could look into too...
I have just been to see my GP as my feet have swollen again- last Friday they started and were fine by Monday but started swelling again yesterday. The doc last week was hopeless- never did any investigations, no blood pressure, no nothing, just said it (what IS it?!) was probably agravated by the plane trip I took that day and the heat and to keep them elevated. Luckily my GP was much more thorough and even thought of looking up the side affects to my meds- there she saw that a side affect of serequel is swollen feet!!!!! I would never have considered anything like that, so am very grateful to her for really taking this seriously.
This may not be much help to you, but GL anyway
