Yes Hello And Thank You. I'm Going To Be 49

Yes Hello and Thank you. I'm going to be 49 years old this month and am currently overweight with HTN and Hypothyroidism. I have a strong family history of HTN, strokes, heart attacks, CHF, COPD, Arthritis and I could probably go on. I have come to terms with my weight issues and have resolved to loose weight this year. For the past several months to a year I have been experiencing swelling of my legs and feet with numbness and tingling in both as well. Like they will go to sleep if I sit for 30 mins or so. This occurs everyday and within the past few weeks I have begun to experience cramping in my calves. I also have been experiencing burning and tingling of my lips but not all the time. Of course I'm currently unemployed and have no health insurance so I am limited to Dr. appointments. Thank again in advance for your time.
