    I don't have much experience in this area, but have you thought of doing water-aerobics at the gym? I understand it can be very gentle on people with injuries or similar limitations, and still a great work out.

    Good luck, I hope you get some good ideas!

    Im sure as you lose weight the pain will start to decrease- as far as which exercises I don't know how about talking to your vascular specialist--

    I would suggest something water related.
