Doesnt anyone know if its something i should worry about? Im scared to go to bed at the moment. Its possibly nothing serious? But if you've never had something happen before its scary. Im not overweight & im 35. I thought people got it when they were heavily pregnant.

No just a bit swollen. Its madness isnt it to panic over that! Just spoke to my mum and she said loads of people are getting it at the moment its fluid retention because of the heat, and the fact ive been sat at this pc for hours plus an hour stood at the ironing board.
I said to her i was panicking thinking it meant there was something wrong with my heart! Crazy isnt it, its because i thought it was only pregnant people that got it. She said her fingers swell in the heat & thats the same thing.
Rekons i should go to the docs tomorrow and he will give me water retention tablets?

I agree with your mum, my fingers swell in the heat, I have to take my rings off. If its not got any better by tomorrow then maybe a trip to the Drs would set your mind at rest.
Try not to worry in the meantime.
Hope its all better in the morning for you

Take care

Hi - I was reading a mag yesterday and it was suggesting that in summer you should buy shoes at the end of a day as your feet swell with the heat, so I guess its pretty common. My fingers swell and my rings get tight.
