Lots of things can cause your feet/ankles to swell, maybe you should elevate them for a while but seeing your gp is the right course to take,if you have seen your Dr recently and he has listened to your heart then It is more likely to do with your weight than heart especially if you have been doing a lot of standing and walking, try not to worry and like I said rest them and keep off the cafine and alchohol x

Your welcome there is nothing worse than blind fear, Its funny but we seem to cope better with knowing than not knowing what it is, Remember rest them, if you are really worried you could go to walkin centre and if you do take your meds with you
