Does anybody know anything about swelling in the legs, from the calf down to the toes, and it's relationship to diabetes. So far I have noticed that it has nothing to do with my glucose levels. They just swell up seemingly as they see fit and it drops off just as mysteriously. I've tried to come at it from every angle I can think of and am getting ready to see a doctor about it on Friday, but I was wondering if anyone could maybe give me a direction to look in/talk to the doctor about as far as what it might be?

Well, I have found something for you, but..

I'm not yet an active member, what ever that means. But when I am, I have a link for you, where it says that you should consult your doctor.

Thank you so much. I know about the whole thing about "you can not post links because you are not an active member" thing. I had the same thing happen to me a few posts ago. Looks like we're both fairly new here... Welcome to DF!

Just post it here when you can and I'll take a look for sure... Or if you want to, you can send it through my Yahoo link there at the side. Either way works for me...

Hello again,

I'm now an active member *GG* so here goes:

Leg swelling: A concern if you have diabetes? - MayoClinic.com

And I found this link to, but I don't know if that's gonna help you though:

Leg swelling - WrongDiagnosis.com

Best Regards,

Thank you, Morten... Slightly helpful. That second one that lists possible causes... Whew! That's a doozy of a list, there...
