Here are some pictures of my elephantitis leg (the left one.)
These two pictures are the ones I took and sent to my father-in-law. This was the day I went into the ER, actually about 30 minutes before I left the house.
The pictures below are of my leg two days ago, 4 days after starting the blood thinners.
My cankle (above).
My regular ankle. (Look how shapely! :))
Left leg vs right leg. I haven't seen a reduction in swelling yet. It definitely makes me feel a little self conscious. It might not be obvious to other people but I feel like I'm wearing a big neon sign that says, "Look at her legs! They're uneven!"
