Re: hand problems???
I would talk to your high risk doctor - bad swelling can be a sign of high blood pressure -(PIH) and I think but could be wrong didn't you post recently that your doctor's office said you had some high BP?
Try upping your fluid level extra fluids might help flush your system and bring down some of the swelling.

I know the fluids always make me feel like I am floating away or will be sick if I drink any more.
It is really good you are seeing the specialist today - make sure you tell him what your bp was if you remember and tell him about the swelling and other issues he will definitely be able to help you or offer suggestions if there is anything you can do to help the problem

Re: hand problems???
My hands are pretty bad too, but I am going to be honest that since I stopped working last week they haven't hurt as much, mainly because I don't really have to write and make it worse.
Nicole, you are stopping work this week, right? Maybe that will help.
