I get this occassionally, and I think it's because I'm on my butt all day. The doctor told me to wear support hose, but I usually wear sandals, so it would look weird.
Hi, Deb. I have had this problem intermittently for years, though nowhere near as bad as it used to be. Now it's just in hot summer when I've been on my feet a lot.
Years ago it was much much worse, and I was put on all sorts of diuretics and so on. Finally they said it was idiopathic edema, which I think is medicalese for 'Beats the h*ll out of me.' They had no clue, and still don't. But I don't think it has any connection with MS.
