Venous Stasis Disease

[Guest guest]

Hi Gang,

I am pre-op and have Venous Stasis Disease. My legs are marked (on the front

) from my ankles to nearly my knees. They look like black & blue marks, very

discolored, and since I've had this disease (4 years) have not changed at all.

My question is...if anyone has the same disease and is post-op, has the color

of your legs changed? I know the damage to my veins is not reversible except

for a delicate and lengthly operation, but I was wondering if I would

experince any change in color?

I would so dearly love my legs to be a normal color again. This would be

especially nice when I'm thin and can wear shorts, skirts and dresses again.

Has anyone asked their doc about this condition and the chance of their legs

returning to a normal color? It never entered my mind to ask because I had

so many other questions that I considered more important. This being just

cosmetic in nature, I didn't think much about it till now. Any info is much

appreciated. Thanks much.

Hugs and Blessings,

Rose
