Thanks for all the info! I am always sure to get some great encouragement when I ask questions here.

Not sure why my onc seems so convinced that the swelling is from heart problems without doing another echo. I will push for that before he has me miss another infusion of Herceptin. For the time being I think I'll go out and buy some new shoes that fit (LOL).

thanks
