I've found out i have poor circulation in my lega and they swell sometimes,it seems that the blood is not flowing quite right and i get tired after i've done anything using my legs.
If i get on my treadmill later on in the day my heart starts racing and i get very tired and jittery.
Is there anyway i can correct this?
Also i seem to be retaining fluid, my husband says i look puffy, this just started within the last year.

First tell us if you eating/drinking correctly, salt intake, eating any meat..etc?

What have you changed in the last year?

Get a slant board and lie on it every day, with your head below your feet. Eliminate all salt from your diet and eat high potassium foods such as bananas.

Have you been to a Dr? Sounds like HBP also signs of CHF where its hard for your Heart to pump the Water off your Body. I would seek Medical advice soon and find out exactly what it is then you can make your decision as how to treat it.

Thanks for all the great advice.
I have an appointment to go to the Dr. next week.
I've been taking Butcher's Broom, Ginkgo and hawthron, the swelling has gone away and i feel find today.
It only seems to come when i put pressure on my legs.
Also if i rush around a lot.

I remember last year i had a lot of fluid in my lungs but it got better.
I'm not going to postpone the Dr's appointment this time.
Thanks

From now on i will check out the sodiun levels.
I've been noticing that i tire easily and this is unusual for me.
I can't even walk on the treadmill without being overly tired and my heart starts to race and flip flop it seems.
