Hi Welcome To HCM
I have gone thru your query regarding odema .
As far as I know odema itself is not a disease by itself . Edema or Oedema is a kind of swelling due to fluid retention in the body. It can be due to physiological or pathological causes. Edema generally occurs on the hands, arms, ankles, legs and the feet.
Since you are undergoing traeatment for CLL , this may be the main cause of your swelling . Side by side of your treatment , to relieve
stress, improve circulation and
lymph flow, enhance immune function, Many other things as , an acidic diet of junk food tea coffee alcohol ,
smoking also contribute to a weak immune system or an abnormal increase in the number of cancer cells -proliferation of the microbe that causes cancer.
I wiould like to suggest you to modify lifestyle to fight cancer is one of the most effective treatment options in my view .
Our health depends mostly upon 'what & how & when we eat, and our life style .
Magnitude of the survival advantage from improved nutrition, can even be greater than the magnitude of the treatment effects being targeted in current clinical drug trials .
And A freindly suggestion is, take care of life style and regular food habits - and avoidance of fried , fast foods , tea ,coffee , alcohol , smoking , mental stress worry , anger and constipatin & nutritious food containing fiber protien , in form of green leafy veges , fruit ,all essential nutrients and supplements full of antioxidents -( mixture of extract of ginger ,garlic , vinegar of coconut water , bark of mooringa tree , lemon & honey -- dose 25ml or can take all of them seperately )
Aloe vera jiuice 30 ml Turmeric powder , level spoon with with a cup of hot goat's milk with B/F & at bed time , bitter gourd juice 25-30 ml
Buttermilk with lunch
This regimen will help you in achieving overall health by curtailing the duration of Your CLL and your odema and bestowing you ahealthy trouble free life
The condition is regularity . to be maintained .
Your body is having trouble fighting gravity to move blood and fluids back up your legs, so your ankles, feet, and even your legs can begin to swell
Gravity is not your friend when it comes to edema, so elevate your feet every chance you get! When you’re relaxing in the evening, prop your legs up on some pillows. Ideally, you want your feet above your heart. Take THAT, gravity!
Magnesium deficiency can contribute to edema,
Excess salt is a big contributor to swelling, and upping your fluid intake can help dilute the salt in your system. Aim for 8-10 glasses of water per day to flush things out. Even better? Try making cucumber-lemon water! Just drop a couple of cucumber and lemon slices in your glass, and enjoy! Both of these fruits have anti-inflammatory properties, so if gives that water an extra swelling .
Exercise can help improve your circulation, and
yoga is a great way to get moving and really focus on that circulatory system. to improve circulation to get you going!
