As you know, I had been suffering with severe throbbing, aches, and pains in my right leg for over two years. Sleeping at night was nearly impossible, due to the involuntary leg movements that occurred most nights. This caused 727-530-0602 me to have problems at work and in everyday life. All of this continued despite all my efforts to get relief (legs up on Mon. - Thurs. 8:30-8:00pm • Fri. 8:30-6:30pm pillows, massages, Potassium pills, drinking lots of water, support hose, many different types of shoes, and leg exercises at least twice a day). Long stretches of sitting, especially in a car or on a plane, caused excruciating pain. Sat. 9am-6pm • Sun. Noon-5pm I had seen several doctors with no relief. N US 19 I prayed every night that I would get some relief and be able to sleep. Rarely did I have such luck. Diagnosed with "restless leg syndrome" and given medication for it, I got little to no relief. Convinced this was how I would have to spend the rest of my life, I saw an ad for Dr. Mountcastle. I had no idea ✦ this would be the best phone call I ever made. Ulmerton Rd. Ulmerton Rd.

I made an appointment. At that meeting an ultrasound was performed which revealed an "insufficient saphenous 66th St. US 19 vein." The vein was repaired in one session. After taking a "relaxation pill,” the procedure was performed in his center. The recovery was very rapid, with little to no pain. I was back to full duty at my Physical Therapy job the next day with no restrictions. volvovillage.com Thanks again Dr. Mountcastle, you have changed my life! www.mountcastleveincenters.com *Prices include Volvo owner loyalty.

Rays roll

Photos by JIM LAYFIELD Rays’ catcher Dioner Navarro, right, is tagged out at home by Baltimore catcher Matt Wieters in the Rays’ season opener Tuesday, April 6, at Tropicana Field. The Rays won the game 4-3 in the ninth inning on a two-run double by Carl Crawford. Rays third baseman Evan Longoria, above, connects for a 473-foot home run into the left field upper deck. The blast was the third longest in Rays’ history at The Trop and brought the Rays within one run of the Orioles.
