msgoof, if you've got a footstool handy, sit down and put your feet up. or lie on the sofa, you get the picture. My mother gets swollen ankles (she retains water there) and it's the best thing.

msgoofball, ice is only good immediately after the injury. you need heat. maybe a heating pad or a warm foot soak or if you have one of those hand wax machines dip them in it. and I would keep them elevated. good luck!

((pinkmartyr)) I hope you are feeling better.
I need to get a water filter also. Does anyone have any experience with hyperthyrodism? I haven't seen the doctor yet or anything, but I wonder if I have this. I am going to make an appt. I've lost a lot of weight recently & now am experiencing anxiety. I have heard those can both be linked to hyperthyroidsm. |

From what I've heard, and in my own experience, Pur water filters are the best. I've seen a lot of studies done that show they remove the most pollutants. My family and I have been using them for a long time and I think they leave the best taste. Brita filters always have an odd taste to me.

Life can be perfect. People can be trusted. Someday, I will fall in love; a nice quiet home of my very own. Free from all the pain. Happy and having fun all the time. It never happened, did it? |

hmmmm.....raskel. I take nature's sunshine multi-vitamin. you can get it at betterherbs.com. It's really high quality but it says to take four a day. I only take two.

I'm looking for a really good pharmaceutical grade multi-vitamin that's not going to run me $60/month. Does anyone know where I can find what I'm looking for?
