Edema: I feel that the most likely cause of your leg and pedal edema is weak valves in the leg veins. There may be an additional factor of fluid region around period time and/or ingestion of excess salt in your diet. Walking helps leg muscles pump the fluid back into the venous system. Wearing elastic stockings should help. Consult a vascular specialist for testing. Heart,kidney,liver issues less likely.
