exercise should help with your swelling, as getting the blood circulating with exercise will get the fluid out of the interstitial space and back into your vasculature. it may take some time.

what is the update on your foot, richard?

i need to go to bed. i haven't gotten much sleep since sunday, when my foot decided it was going to be spiteful. last night i got maybe two hours, the night before maybe four. i am nodding off. my wife is going to drive me to work in the morning, as the walk from my car is probably a quarter mile and it just exacerbates the pain and swelling. it took me about 15 minutes to make the walk from my desk to my car.

update on my job, now that i am on the subject: it is awesome. the people i work with are nice and supportive and the team camaraderie is amazing. i find it hard to believe at times.
