Voting Question: Swollen lower legs and ankles!?
I woke up this morning lower legs and ankles. I also have what they call “pitting edema”! When I push on my leg/ankle it indents and remains there for awhile. I will give you a quick run through of my health conditions: I have gallstones which is being removed June 24th, I have an enlarged liver, I have pain under left rib that goes up my back side into my shoulder blades sometimes! The pain under my left rib is similar to that of my gallbladder pain but when touched is not sensitive. I am vitamin D deficient as well as very anemic. I have cists in my thyroid, peptic stomach ulcers and dislocating hips! I have heart arythmia and heart palpatations. If you have any idea what may be causing this swelling and edema please let me know. I also have pain in my legs,claves and ankles! The pain is more like a cramping/or pressure pain.
Please note: I had a baby almost 6 months ago, am on a diet due to the gallbladder and liver and I do not drink/smoke or do drugs!

Open Question: Specializing after Nursing?
A friend of mine has been working as a qualified nurse in her home country. Now she is thinking of going abroad and taking the next step in Medicine. What would be a suitable course of study for her as an experienced nurse? I mean is there anything for nurses similar to, say, specializing in heart and cardiovascular diseases or postdoc work for PhD holders?
