For Sqad, Slaney

[gness]

and others who gave me advice.

I've been discharged from the vascular department at last. Not that they did anything at all for me when I look back.

From not being able to feel pulses below the groin I now have strong pulses in both legs. I'm told that this is because smaller arteries seem to have opened up due to my exercising....and of course wearing high heels....☺
I'm warned that the restriction could get worse...but also that it could reduce ....I'll work on the reduction.

I can walk briskly and for long distances with no problems....run up the stairs...climb ladders, I'm not sure about getting to the top of the Pinnacle Climbing Wall....I'll give it a shot though!

So thank you for all your help and advice....it really is much appreciated.

please keep the ladder climbing to a minimum

[aelmpvw]

... especially if you're wearing high heels

And riding electric bikes?

[Sqad]

Well, that is a satisfactory outcome.

Everest next ?

Excellent news gness - I suppose one advantage of all the delays is that it gave you time to exercise yourself better.
All credit to you, and keep up the (safe) exercise - and the aspirin and statins :-)

Morning....honestly, Sqad....satisfactory....if you saw me climbing my ladders you'd think....Whoohoo....not..satisfactory.... ;-)

Slaney.....you are right of course but if Sqad hadn't told me what it was all that time ago and if it hadn't been for advice on here I wouldn't have known what the problem was for sure and how to help it.
IC was never confirmed for certain until a few weeks ago.....they still thought it was a nerve damage problem....nor exercise suggested as a way to perhaps avoid surgery until late last year.
But now I feel in charge of it.....and know what to do to help myself!

So...onwards and upwards....but not Everest!

Thank you....Gx
