[QUOTE="Jo_the_boat, post: 1828689, member: 436209"] I have it. If you are indeed diagnosed with atherosclerosis, [U]don't panic[/U]. It's not great but there is plenty you can do. It's far more common than many people realize, many are undiagnosed. The link from Bullbiker above is a good intro to claudication. You'll learn more after 18th July but feel free to drop me a line. The page linked here and page that follows on are an insight in where I'm up to [URL='http://abargeatlarge.co.uk/articles/the%20fat%20bloke/vascular%20follow%20up.html']Here[/URL] You could probably describe my situation as reasonably serious but I'm still very active (walking / house renovation) and trying to manage things as much as possible. I have been in communication with a couple of experts recently (they have videos on You Tube and have published papers themselves, particularly on the use (or not) of Statins). I am still trying to understand my condition properly and the (non-invasive) treatment of it. I'll be writing up my efforts in due course. My musings though are just that, personal musings from a fairly dim person without medical training. Anyhow best of luck to you. [/QUOTE]
