Hi Momo, there are so many causes of edema that it is just not possible to guess what is going on. I understand how frightening this time is, however, when you have no answers. It sounds like your doctor will get to the bottom of it very soon, however, which is awesome. Please remember that most causes of severe edema (and even congestive heart failure) are generally quite treatable. Please keep us posted? Gentle hugs….

“Dr. Diana will always hold a very special place in my heart for her selfless devotion to helping everyone, not just the Ehlers-Danlos community. I hate to think what my life would be without her insight and guidance.”
