I Might (Probably) Have Congestive Heart Failure Now
One of the symptoms I have with this edema is "Shiny Skin" on my feet and lower legs. I also have fluid draining out of my pores in that area.
Today I looked to see my lower legs are also beet red. So back to the internet to see what this symptom indicates.
It's Congestive Heart Failure, a diagnosis that is bad, but sounds worse than it is. I have most of the symptoms now. I have had it before a few times and lived through it, so here we go again.
All of the mainstream sites say you cannot cure this, but I know this is not true. Moving on to alt-health sites gives ideas of things to try.
Looking at all of this says I need to up my green tea drinking game and get more fiber. Also get my legs up on the wall, get more exercise, and twist and turn my feet at least once an hour while awake. This is called foot pumping. I have been doing it, but will do more.
The goal is to get the fluid out of my mid-section. This is what is straining my heart. I do not have fainting spells or mental confusion yet, so I hope I can reverse this soon.
In a bit of good news, my ankles are not so swollen today. So now to move that good news to the rest of my body - ASAP.
My photo for this post shows my "Cute Purple Toes" when they were cute a few years ago. This photo is my first internet success and used to show up in the number one spot for "cute purple toes" in google images. This is one of the very first things I did when learning social media. It gave me encouragement to go on.
Nice to have a good memory to boost me today.

Thank you Denise, @dswigle. I am so glad I saw this today. Only a few hours on panic before I figured out a plan :)
So glad to hear this! Big hug coming your way! xoxo
Take good care of yourself, you are intelligent, how good it is helping you.
Thank you, @carlosnoriega. I really appreciate your support :)

I hope that the new things you are going to be trying do some good for your health.
Thank you, @derangedvisions. I am feeling positive :)
I was just looking through and saw this post. Sorry to hear of your issues. I do have a few recommendations.
The first is Hemohim. You will need me to get you sign-up, which is free and nothing more other than paying for the products themselves. Besides that, you'll be helping me out a ton because I'm homeless and could use the extra help. You can reach me here or within the Facebook group "Moving the Streets", the "Vivid Vision" will give you the low-down on what I'd like to do with this company, Atomy.
The second is Qigong and Taijiquan. Why I recommend these arts can be found within The Dao of Taijiquan: Way to Rejuvenation (Tai Chi) and Master Cheng's Thirteen Chapters on Tai Chi Ch'üan. You can come stop by the Khasa Facebook group if you are in the Los Angeles area or if you need to find someone outside of the Los Angeles area.
I do hope this helps.
Thank you for all of this, @tristancarax. I am in Malaysia and unbanked, so I think we have a lot in common. One of my goals is to find a way to get banking, but so far no luck. I will take a look at all your links though. You never know :)
You're in luck. Atomy serves Malaysia! I haven't signed-up anyone yet from another country so you would be my first if you did. I don't know what extra, if any, documentation is required so it would be a learning process for both of us. Here is the malaysia site for Atomy --> http://www.atomy.com/my/Home - you won't be able to see pricing, only members can but, if you want, I can sign into the Malaysia site and check for you.
There definately are Qigong and Taijiquan teachers around the world. I'm sure that you can find one on your own or come to the group. Either way, up to you.
My visa does not allow me to have a Malaysian bank account.
What is meant by "banking" and "unbanked?"
It means I do not have a bank account or any way to pay for anything online.
Not having a bank account is not a problem.
Having no way to order things online is a problem. If you can figure out this issue, even asking a friend to use their credit card to order or some other way, then there isn't much else you need.
However, since I've never signed up someone from another country, you just might need a bank accoun but I don't know. Another possibility would be to sign someone else up who lives near you or with you and then you can handle it from there.
These are just options off the top of my head.
I also have issues of even receiving mail here, so I do not think I can pursue this.
There remains Qigong and Taijiquan nonetheless. Let me know if you pursue the route. I'd like to here your story.
You are a strong woman and you will fight throug it like before.
One suggestion, internet is so vast and any suggestions coming from ther, always take a second opinion of what new you are trying. Not everyone who write on internet is an expert (like me 😊 )
Wish you good days always

Take good care my dear. Go to the doctor right now and you will know the finding soon. If you know a natural medicine, it is more better.
Hi @fitinfun, I am glad to hear from you, very good that you are taking care of yourself and that you see the improvement. By the way I congratulate you for being an internet reference and the photo of your beautiful purple feet is published.
Dear @fitinfun
My impression sometimes is that majority westerners have "Shiny skin" and it indeed always does look quite .. unnatural (for lack of better word).
Very true. It may not fix your problem but it would help to improve blood flow.
Fingers crossed for your health,
Yours, Piotr
What, this is not good to me and I wish you above all a quick recovery.

hi @fitinfun
I feel with you and hope you get better.
I know you're good at taking care of yourself
You need a visa / master card if you do not have a bank
so you can exchange Steem / BCT and spend fiat money on the card
I can give you a link to a company that I am very happy with
Thank you, @xpilar. I would love to know that information. I have a goal to work this out and get on my feet better.
Hi @fitinfun
Several Steemians used the company before, but for a time they were without the opportunity to offer cards. Now they have come up with a new card solution which is visa. When you log in there you check over the countries that can get the card.
Hope it is possible for you to get it
I will also make a post later about the company
here is the address
