Hi,Dear,Thanks for your query to HCM.
Dear I read your query and reviewed it with context to your query facts.
I understood your health concerns and feel Concerned about them.
Based on the facts of your query, you seem to suffer from-
Blocked arteries in legs with advanced age.
I would a suggest a Moderation under Physician control.
Also physical activities n controlled ambulation and jogging to acceptbable time limits would improve his leg pefussion and coronary perfussion.
In MOderation,Calcimax may also tone up his cardiac function if exposed to 20-30 mts sunlight.
Excess should be controlled by Watch on Blood Calcium to avoid Hypercalcemia,which is detrimental to leg arteries,as it may expedite arterial blockages,by calciulm depositing in the leg arteries.
Hope this reply would help you to plan further treatment with your family and specialist doctors there.
Take care and get healthy and avoid bad food to live long.
Welcome for any further query in this regard.
Good Day!!
