Some background.As a 66 year old alcoholic in recovery
with minor low mood and joint problems some times I struggle to cope.Its all there in my notes.I would point out I am 28 years sober.Suddenly I find I have varicose problems.Started with one swelling in a lower leg now I have pain in thigh with 3 swellings.Keep going back to the doctor because pain control buy walking,propping my leg up and a flight sock along with drugs based on refined heroine are largely in effective. Not only that I find that I am taking more tablets than I should a because I have a very addictive nature and they really don't work very well so in the middle of the night in severe pain and groggy I take another 2 tablets.To cap it all the surgery diagnostic machine is as of now still not working.I have had to withdraw from a lease I was due to sign in the morning because I have very little faith in the system.This means I will not be able to get back to work on Monday.If your Doppler machine was up and running and it was found a proper stocking would sort out the problem then the is a good chance I would be a tax payer again as from tomorrow.
