Has anyone experienced swollen foot after CCSVI?
I am 40 days after CCSVI, had very mild swollen foot on my right foot but all sudden during holidays my left foot has swollen hard, red and painful, can’t put my shoes on.
Anyone experienced such or it’s a coincident?

Brave: John always had swollen purple feet, however, his feet are not as swollen now since the proc. I would suggest you make an appt with your Dr. It could be a multitude of things, one serious thing being a possible blood clot. Please call your Dr. today. Good luck to you!
Edited to add......hard-red and painful makes me very concerned!
Scan is needed

You should see your doctor immediately to be evaluated for a DVT (deep vein thrombosis).

I agree with PP, you need to check that you don't have a DVT. These can move to the lungs so please get it checked out asap.
ASAP!!!

Thank you all for your concern and pushing me to see a Dr.
today I saw a cardiologist and he insisted there should be a clot but so far ultrasound from legs and x-ray from lung hasn't shown any clot .
I'm waiting for lab test result to make sure no failure in kidney
More tests are scheduled for Thursday.
