Endovenous Ablation On legs for Pain Reduction

[jackieschmidt]

I guess time has finally caught up with my 76 year old legs.

I have been on them my entire life, I still do a lot of walking, climbing, and stumbling around in shop and on job sites.

I have been wearing compression stockings for several years, but lately I have been getting horrendous pain in my upper feet.

I went to a specialist, they ran a complete battery of test, and it was decided that my best course of action is having the procedure called Endovenous Ablation performed on the veins that are causing the problem.

My right leg will be done next Friday, the left the next week. Dr Lee says there is a 90% positive results from this, especially in the elimination of the pain, which is pretty severe.

Jackie, that treatment is an excellent one. A family member had it done and the results are very positive. He does restoration work on classic muscle cars and it's literally changed his life.

All the best to you. -Al
