What Is The Remedy For Edema?
I have MS for 10 years complicated with Idiopathic Periferal Neuropathy, Restless Leg Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Post traumatic Stress Disorder, Depression. I take many meds, one being Requip that my Neurologist says is the one that retains the fluid build-up in my feet and legs. I have bad pitting edema and can hardly get shoes on at all. I have just had to stop therapy to strengthen my legs because it over acted the nerve endings in my feet. I had an EMG and the nerves are dead from mid calf to my feet....only my nerve endings on the surface of my feet keep me awake at night and I need to find shoes to fit me. Insurance doesn t cover them as I am NOT Diabetic. Any help?
