Suggest Remedy For Elevated ABI Level With Pain In Lower Legs

I recently had a Peripheral Vascular Disease screening done at a local hospital. They stated that my results are outside normal range. Both my right and left ABI values are 1.4. I also have noticeable pain in my lower legs, ankles, and feet when I sleep. I am 72, a long-time runner and triathlete and for over 8 months have pain in both legs which begins within minutes of my starting to run or bike, and stops almost immediately when I quit my workout. I also have lower leg pain, both legs, when I sleep, which worsens as morning approaches. My Primary Care doc believes that the ABI values are very good . I don t think he s correct. Your opinion, please. Ken Kirschenmann Huntington W.Va.
