I Can Walk The Stairs Again!

I-Can-Walk-The-Stairs-Again-Connie-Painter-Patient-Success-Story

What would happen if one day you found you could no longer walk up stairs?

What if your leg pain was so bad during the day that your normal routine was no longer possible?

One busy 61-year-old Missourian was devastated when leg pain forced her to take the elevator at work.  Faced with having to stop doing things she loved, Connie Painter refused to accept the elevator as a way of life.

A Missouri Vein Care Success Story

Connie Painter is a retired Certified Nursing Assistant and Activity Director in the nursing home in her small town. Her time is split between her 2 young adopted granddaughters, serving as an alderwoman for her city council, working with the Chamber of Commerce and acting as a caregiver for her husband. 

As an alderwoman, she had to go up stairs in the courthouse building. When she couldn’t make it up the stairs any longer because of fatigue and extreme leg pain, she was forced to start using the elevator. Her normal routine of running errands, daily household chores, taking care of her family plus community events was becoming more than she could handle. She felt that her health was slipping away from her and she didn't know what to do. Was this part of aging or sign of something else? Feeling old, rundown and embarrassed...she went to Missouri Vein Care desperate for answers. 

Now, after vein treatment, she's able to tackle the stairs like her old self!

Her energy and stamina are back. She feels healthy again. She now wakes up each day feeling refreshed and ready to go. In fact, Connie is so inspired by her circulation improvement, she's motivated to tackle other health goals. Connie plans to quit smoking, start a walking program and, finally, lose weight.
