As promised I spend most of my Sunday with my feet up. The goal was to elevate my feet to keep the swelling down. So far it has worked. I did go across the street to the supermarket and to the basement to wash some towels but for the most part I stayed in the apartment with the leg up and there has been no swelling. Still some dry and peeling skin but the swelling I have grown accustomed to seeing these past few weeks isn't there. I have one quick errand to make tomorrow and I will repeat the process. Next thing is to adjust the salt in my diet. I don't use that much of it but it may be cause for the swelling.
As for today:
1) Did last minute laundry.
2) Walked down and UP 15 flights of stairs to and from the basement (actually 16 flights since I live on the 15th floor and had to go to the basement)
3) Walked to the supermarket which is only a block and a half away.
Very little foot swelling if at all.
Still pissed about the hospital food.
