Thank you, Annie, for the horse chestnut recommendation! (I thought it was Annie who first mentioned it; but I also think I remember Heather and Clara on that thread, so if I've gotten that wrong, credit wherever it is due. )

I ordered some horse chestnut from Swanson's last week, and it arrived a few days ago. I guess it's possible it's just my imagination, but already I think my calves look and feel better.

Yes, Horse Chestnut helps to repair damaged (leaky) veins. As I've written previously, HC + a diuretic (for me it was Spiro) completely eliminated water retention in my feet and ankles. I'm hoping that what discoloration has occurred with fade away in time, too. Good luck, Michelle.
