How much salt..?: Are you pregnant? Very important to answer 1 st. If you just " puffy" feet and hands it could be eating too much salthy food - Watch SODIUM! It needs much of water to be diluted and you may be retainig water. Check with your doctor if your kidneys are working right - simple urine test for protien may be helpful. Check your blood pressure as well and watch for side effects of any other medicatons.
