Swollen Feet/ Ankles ?

Hi all, My mom has been on Herceptin since January Of 2004, Over the last 2 weeks however her feet and ankles have become swollen. She saw Onc and he said it's water retention and he wants her to keep her feet elevated above her heart. Her last Muga was Ok , but he wants her to take a month off, which will be three treatments she will miss. My question is for anyone else who had this problem , any advice about this? Foods she should avoid , tricks to get the swelling down. It is slightly painful , but not horrible. Thanks !



With Love, Donna
