Went out and measured the cables around the garage - Wow - They are all different - Mountain bike 6mm, Old campy 5mm, Swollen PVC Fuji 5.5 to 6mm, Walmart cable 6mm... Duh... The link below gives some pretty good measurements but I think its the cables that are out of line...

Of course if the brake cable housing is on the side with the swollen foot it will have to be larger...

Sick? As your attorney, I advise you to seek a cold beer and a hot bowl, which should deliver equanimity toot sweet.
Tandem cabling runs in 6mm housing and is surpassingly stout.
