capillary leakage syndrome
Has anyone out there experienced capillary leakage syndrome? After my last chemo treatment of TCH, I noticed slight swelling of the ankles. When I squat down, I also notice some tightness in my legs and I believe this must be a symptom of slight edema throughout my lower body. It is very slight so elevation and watching the salt seem to be all I need to do. It isn't a significant problem and it doesn't prevent me from my normal activities, but I was just wondering if anyone noticed this also.
