It has only recently gotten to the point of the intense itching, really dark skin discoloration, and hive-like bumps on the tops of my feet. My doc seems to think my persistent leg edema may be a catalyst so she gave me very strict instructions to take the 40mg diuretic she prescribed at yesterday's office visit (I really HATE pills & admitted that I wasn't taking the other ones very much) I've been doing research online to see if there's anything else I can do (change diet, exercise, hot/cold compresses, etc) to combat it.<br /><br />All the best to you in your journey; you're in my prayers for a full recovery.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2110297268863756645.post-22771426983891099182009-03-30T09:47:00.000-04:002009-03-30T09:47:00.000-04:00I'm hoping and praying for your quick recovery!!

I let mine spread way too much before I finally went in and so it took weeks to clear up with steroids and antibiotics.
