Chronic venous insufficiency.

Our friend Broadus occasionally suffers from Chronic Insufficiency (ask your grandchildren)

I asked a father-son MD team if it could be fatal. “No, that’s what chronic means.” They’re jokesters so …

My wife has had it for twenty years. She had two surgeries that weren’t very successful. The symptoms come and go and she has to wear compression thigh high socks when her legs swell up. She’s a thin woman, though, with a heavy set person, I’m sure the symptoms are more pronounced.

I think it’s Chronic Venus Insufficiency
