At the risk of being in the "too much information" catagory, my liver was so clogged up my feet were swelling nearly every day & I would get swelling in my groin. My knees were constantly killing me- avoided taking the stairs whenever I could. My right calf whould swell so badly that I could feel the skin stretch-hurt like hell! I had man-boobs. Face, puffy & swollen. blood Pressure? 160/100 was common. Speeding heartbeat? NINTY after sitting for half a hour. Needless to say, I couldn't relax EVER. which doesn't help the disposition AT ALL.
After seven months sobreity, along with BP & anarhymia (sic) medicine these symptoms have largely disappeared. My joints especially have improved.BP & pulserate are below average. Muscle tone much better. Of course I am not growing any younger, but I FEEL younger. I guess my point is it took ME about 5 1/2-6 months before I could REALLY tell that my physical condition had improved..........
