I have slight swelling of my right lower leg. The endocrinologist discovered it today. I asked her if it was caused by diabetes and she said, “Not diabetes per se.” That was all she said. What condition might this be? I’m going back in one month.
The circulation in my legs is good and I have no numbness or tingling in my toes or the rest of my feet.
