Swelling and water retention.

Water retention is getting worse instead of better. I was told the steroids were the cause, but now that they're purged from my system I continue to have tremendously swollen ankles and knees. This makes movement difficult.

I suspect that too much sitting is part of the cause. I started to use Ed's stairstepper machine today. It's amazing the amount of muscular atrophy I've experienced in my lower body. It's only been 61 days since the transplant and the issues.

Yes, I've even tried compression garments. This is going to be a project.
