My calves and feet feel absolutely horrendous. I am on lasix but the swelling is not going down, I raise them up for hours, walk, nothing seems to make a difference. They feel ok when I rub them but of course it does nothing to get rid of the swelling. Is it a matter of waiting until they go down or has anyone found something that will encourage them to rid themselves of the fluid? I hope getting off of prednisone, if possible will aid in this and in my shortness of breath. Karly
