Legs still swollen 24 hours after ER?

Hi Ladies.. As many of you know I had my ER yesterday and I have already lost a lot of the bloat, but my calves and ankles are really bloated/swollen still.  Any  of you still have bloating for a few days after ER?  I'm prolly just being paranoid, but it's kinda grossing me out.

k... you're probably getting tired of hearing this but I'm still feeling terrible.  
My calves and ankles aren't swollen but I'm still UN-believably bloated and crampy and gas-y.  I'm not sure that this is entirely correct but my doctor said it had nothing to do with the anesthesia and is purely to do with the stims (I still think it's at least partly the anesthesia and we all know how much more WE know than them doctors!)... However, conceding for a moment that he might have a point, I'm not surprised you're bloated with the amount of stims you were on!!!

Thanks Magda..I bet youre right.. I mean in 13 days my estrogen was increased 1,000 times its normal amount and the drugs.. sheesh...
Im sorry you are still so crampy and bloated.  Most of my cramps are gone.. just a few twinges and then theres my ugly calves.  When I woke up it was better though.  When will they call you today w/your next report?
