It's been just about two weeks since my last visit, so I made my follow-up phone call to the vascular specialist this afternoon, as per his request. I have been diligently wearing my compression stockings (sexay!), elevating my feet as often as possible and we even raised the foot of the bed up on blocks so my feet will be up even when I'm sleeping. Unfortunately, all of this hasn't made any difference. I still have one skinny and one fat leg. Sigh. The next step is Lymphatic Drainage Massage to see if that will get some of the excess fluid out of my leg. I told the nurse about our vacation, so she will have the physical therapist call me the week we get back. I probably should be excited about getting massages on our insurance's dime. However, I have a feeling it's going to be more painful than relaxing.
