Swollen Feet

Mon, 11/20/2006 - 12:51
Hi Everyone, I found out I have epilespy about 3 years ago. Recently, over the last few months my feet hurt even worse when I wake up from sleeping. They feel as though they are burning and they are really swollen. It seems to go away throughout the day but it's getting worse. Does anyone know what this is? I'm on 300 mg of Lamictal/per day and 300mg of Trileptal per/day. I haven't had any seizures for awhile. Any input would be helpful. p.s. I do have an appointment for my Dr. but not for another month.

Have you had your sugar levels checked lately? I know those things happen with people with diabetes. Please check with your doctor sooner that later. Good luck!!
