You didn't talk about how you are treating PAD. Are you just walking, or did you have bypass surgery? I had the surgery about 4 months ago after having an angiogram and finding out both legs have plaque. I just had another ultrasound and they have found plaque in my new artery (bottom). So I need to go back again and have another angiogram to try and push it aside. I got very sick from taking a strong prednisone, then all the medicine they give you during surgery. Hate going thru this again. Just hope they don't need to use a stent to keep it open. People have had problems with those as well. I never smoked, I'm not obese, doctors think it is my "genes". Unfortunately, I have a difficult time taking statins as well.

You should speak with your primary care provider, who will direct you to the appropriate clinician.

A vascular surgeon specializes in P.A.D.

You can see a radiologist, vascular, or family doctor first. They will refer you if necessary.
