Hi Ishan

Your ankle-brachial index indicates a moderate to severe blockage and you need specialist attention. If you have not already done so, you need to see a specialist physician, possibly a vascular specialist, if there is one available in your region. Speak toy our GP about a referral. Risk factors like an elevated triglyceride level has to be attended to – in this case both medication, diet and exercise is recommended. Due to your concomitant risk for heart disease and stroke, do not start exercising without speaking to your doctor. Your GP should be able to provide you with the relevant information. You can read more here on peripheral arterial disease.
