dear Patricia, have you tried the epsom salts soak. you put 1/3/cup epsom salts into medium size warm bath and soak until water cools. make sure water is not to hot. gentle stretching is good and easy walking. avoid carbs and sugar most people agree. all my faith and hope you will find a routine that works for you. keep posting and let us know how it works.
