Back to the Doctor

I was told all test results that came back on Friday were normal and that I wasn't toxic, "yet." Now, I'm not sure if that means that my levels were on the high end of the normal range, but the nurse threw in the word "yet" when telling me to keep my feet elevated and make sure to drink plenty of fluids.
So, after having an entire week off from work, I head back to the doctor today to be "re-evaluated." What this means, entirely, I'm not sure. After staying off my feet for the past week or so and drinking plenty of fluids (water and Crystal Light to be specific), my feet are returning to semi-normal. You can actually make out the bones in my ankles and on the tops of my feet! As long as I'm sitting down, that is. It's almost automoatic that as soon as I stand up, gravity pulls every bit of fluid down to my poor feet and they are engorged with fluid yet again. We'll see what the doc has to say about all this later this afternoon.
