Welcome to the group. Is your husband a type 1or type 2? Has he talked with his Endocrinologist about the swelling? If so, what did he/she say? What medication is he on for the blood pressure? Does he sit a lot during the day?

always go back to your doctor immediately and if you think it's the pills stop taking them. It's not his socks is it??????☺
