amytug 996 Posted May 1, 2013 I just started noticing this yesterday. My bra is feeling tight too. Today I had my dd take a pic of me and I noticed how full my ankles are of Fluid. I don't know of this is from the heat or what, but he last two days have been pretty hot compared to the weather we had been having and I've been sweatin a lot more. My pee is concentrated too, dispite the fact that I've drank more fluids today than any other day as a sleever, as of yet. I'm also on blood thinners for 3 clots in my intestines, but I've never encountered this in the 6 weeks I've been on them. Course it hasn't been this hot either. Last time I saw the cardiologist he asked me if I had any swelling and I hadn't at that time, but now I'm alarmed an wondering if I should be. Anyone else experience this!

No game 14,437 Posted May 1, 2013 I see that Amy! I have no idea.. But you should definitely call in the morning. It's in the 90s this week here and I'm not having swelling... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted May 1, 2013 If you have a history of blood clots and you have swelling in your legs you need to contact your dr ASAP. This could mean you have a blockage due to clotting in the lower extremities. OR.. It could be nothing other then the heat.. But your dr needs to be contacted 1 MrsG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrsG 329 Posted May 1, 2013 I would definitely mention it to your doctor. It might be nothing but if you have a history of clots I think it's worth getting checked out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Izuri 428 Posted May 1, 2013 Do you have pain in your calf? Is it warm to the touch? Those ( plus swelling, redness, etc) are all signs of a blood clot in your leg and should be evaluated by a health care professional. Better safe than sorry. Very cute picture by the way =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
