In Need of Info Regarding Intermittent Claudication- Posted: 01-20-04 23:01pm
The above stated disease is a symptom of
peripheral arterial disease. My mother,
age 56, is suffering from the exact
symptoms I found in researching. She has
taken 3 advils, and one muscle relaxer; of
course her pain is less, however she is
still experiencing the
aches/cramping/numbness. Please if
someone can respond telling me if this is
in fact a life threatening situation at
the time being, in which case taking her
to the er would be a must... Thank you
very much to whom ever responds to my
concerns...
Also, if the reader of my concern has had
experience in the past, and/or known
someone who suffered the same disease, may
u include some info on his/her conditions
and steps taken in the attempt of treating
this... Thank you very, very much.
