    Is there a question? That's pretty typical of the elderly. Working with geriatrics, I see this very often.

    Ann I don't know if that goes with this but my legs are always cold too. This 3.1 is new to me. I got all my blood work back and it is great. They will check on it in 3 years. I am so blessed to have found it when they did. Now just got to watch and take care of myself. Sorry about your jegs.
