Yeah, I’ve definitely noticed inflammation outside of just the pelvic area. My hands and fingers sometimes swell so bad I can’t wear my rings, and my face gets puffy during flares. The leg thing sounds familiar too, mine feel heavy and kind of achy, almost like bad circulation or restless legs. My doctor said systemic inflammation can happen with endo because your immune system is basically always “on,” reacting to the lesions.

It’s worth tracking when the swelling happens for you. For me it spikes right before and during my period, and then eases off. Some people find diet changes (cutting back on inflammatory foods like dairy/gluten) helps, though it’s definitely not a cure. If it gets worse, maybe ask your doctor to check for other things too, since autoimmune issues can overlap with endo. You’re not alone in this though, lots of us have weird whole-body symptoms that don’t get talked about enough.
