Compression Hose...Please HELP!!!
20-30 would be the place to start .You can also buy them on eBay for cheep . They make a toeless type ( I use this kind ) if they pinch your toes . If you have a store near you that can fit you that is always better but if not you need to mesure your ankle and your top calf to get your size .

"Dude, don't take this the wrong way, but I don't think Obama is the reason that you don't have a job. Why not apply for disability and get some better medical care"It just not that easy I already get disability $700.00 ( wow I am rich ) per month I pay $200.00 for Medicare and part d ,And I when pay $500 per month in cobra .

If air travel worked like healthcare...
Love it ! This red tape nightmare happen to me yesterday . I called a big hospital clinic here to have catheter changed when I asked if they had ordered the catheter I needed I was told "we are in the hospital but can't order catheters from supply!" you will need to call the floor you where on when they gave it to you . Ok so I call the floor and am told " yes mama I can we ordered this for you but sence you are not in the hospital we can not order this from supply " "what are you kidding " after 1/2 dozen call the catheter I needed shows up at door from a outside supplier .So I go to the clinic for my apt and the nurse walks in with a new nurse in training .the nurse pulls out my cather and "then" says "oh I have to check that we carry this catheter in the hospital before I can up it in" ! I say of course you carry it I spence the morning trying to order it from your supply people !!!! The nurse leaves and leaves the new nurse to towels on me as pee is poring out of the track . The new says "gee that may have been something to check before she pulled it out . 15 mins pass and now send her out to tell the other nurse to hurry as she has 15mins left before the track will close. Nurse one comes in and says well I am not alould to put one in without an order that I also forgot to get ! Well now we are running out of time I tell her to eater put one in or spey out and I will do it myself but to make up mind quickly ! It was at this point that we both realize that when she walked in that she had pickup the staile catheter with un gloved hands to look at it uless . So she relizs she better do something and quick or I am going to have to go the OR so both of them take off running to get a catheter that will work .thank god they found one and it went in . But this red tape is killing me
