Not the knees.. The arteries in the legs are plugged up, so p*ss poor blood flow to the muscles. They just tire quickly. A little break and I can go again, sort of...My regular Doc sent me to a vascular surgeon, but he said I am to damn old to operate on and put stents in...Also have an anuerism in my aorta...Last ultra sound showed it growing so the surgeon got all excited about operating on it...I said no....If it burst not to bad a way to go..Did go over and got cat scan, it shows things better than ultra sound...The results from it was the anuerism hadn't grown. Darn it.....

.....Westy.....

FWIW, They are testing a form of "super HDL" that when administered over a five week period clears years of plaque from arteries. Cleveland Clinic Foundation is doing the work with the super HDL, it's related to a mutated gene, Apo A-1 Milano.

You're on you own for the aneurysm...
