I am 72 years old and for the last 5 years my feet are in severe pain and burning . Also my feet feel fuzzy and left leg is numb up to knee and in severe pain.Doctors say p.a.d but offer no help.I am overweight but no blood pressure or cholesteral problems. Any one with same problem?

Hi @richsuewindish. I'm so sorry to hear about your pain. Here is some information about lifestyle and home remedies for PAD: http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/peripheral-artery-disease/basics/lifestyle-home-remedies/con-20028731. Has anyone else experienced this before?

If you are overweight, chances are you could be suffering from diabetes that has blocked blood supply in the legs...thus causing you pain and burning.Get a second opinion on this condition...from a renowned GP.
