Peripheral Artery Disease is a chronic ailment that’s more prevalent and deadlier than all cancers combined except for lung cancer. You don’t need to tackle this alone. Contact the Global PAD Association to talk about your symptoms, learn more about your condition, to get help finding a doctor, and join peer support groups.
