Don't know if this is the right place for this but here goes. Been diabetic for 24yrs this year and have just recently started with swelling of my ankles/feet (before the heatwave started) been for my annual review and circulation/sensation to my feet are good and am on different medications for high blood pressure and a stroke (I know unlucky) my blood pressure is well within range,120/75 on my last reading , but my ankles have started to swell and it's getting extremely painful. I have a sedentary job role now and do sit at a desk for prolonged periods, but I do get up and walk around a lot but my ankles swell even more doing this. I suppose my question is has anyone else experienced this? I am going to make an appointment with my GP (for all the good it will do) I am just wondering if this is a diabetes related thing (which I can understand) or something else, hopefully just weather related.
Thanks for taking the time to read.
Take care everyone
