got my shoes this morning,fit really well and seem comfy but boy are they heavey,didnt put them on till i got home had an hour with them on they didnt feel uncomfortable at all,have to go back in nov for follow up app.
also this morning had flu jab ,had my blood pressure checked as well they seemed a little concerned as it was in the low ninties,so got appointment to see gp next week but have a rhemmy clinic app on monday so will see what my nurse says,could it be the meds?will have to wait and see,i feel absolutly fine.it doesnt say anything about low pressure on the lef but it does on the dihydrocodeine so will try to cut down to as low as i can manage.sorry to ramble just a little concerned.Mig

    Hi Mig,

    Glad you got the shoes and let us know how you get o with them please?

    Was the low 90's the top or the bottom one flower?

    I have low bp most the time in one arm and high in the other..... its an odd one but glad they are keeping an eye on you. Hopefully it is to do with the tablets and it can either self adjust or will be able to be fine tuned with a slight tablet change? let us know please. Cris xx

    Oh how lovely - your shoes are comfy! I am sure you will soon adjust to the weight of them. I too am glad they are keeping an eye on your BP: I have the opposite problem, mine is waaaaaay to high but as that is humira-induced I ain't too bothered. I'm on meds for it, which makes a nice change. :wink:

    Hi mig

    Good news on the shoes glad you like them. You will probably have to wear them a little and often to get used to the weight.

    Hope the gp says the blood pressure is ok when you see him

    Glad you got your shoes Mig and you like them. I got an ankle support, which has done nothing for me shoes might be next for me.
