numb feet are scary

I'm being pretty careful lately, plus my high protein, low carb diet should be helping, but my feet have been bad this last week. Not neuropathy, but numbness, and that I find scary. It's from too much god damn sitting. Plus, some of the sitting cuts off circulation under my knees. Very dangerous, very scary. I've been riding my recumbent bike a fair bit, for about 25 mins at low tension. It does help.

I sit all day at my desk, looking at a computer screen, talking on the phone, not getting up for an hour or more at a time, and then walking a short way to the can to have another piss or a coffee. I take my beautiful dog for a short walk after lunch and then it's all afternoon at the desk again. Man, something must change. Maybe walking on a treadmill in front of the computer?

My feet and ankles are pufffed up still so I'm retaining water too. Fucking drug that I discontinued will take some time to get out of my system. Pretty boring eh? I know, it bores me too. Sorry.
