‘There appears to be evidence of peripheral vascular disease. It is a blood circulation disorder that causes the blood vessels outside the heart and brain to narrow, block, or spasm,” he told FEMAIL.

It usually results in heart failure. If your peripheral circulation is that poor, your organs aren’t getting a good blood supply. It may be a sign of multi-organ failure.’

What is peripheral vascular disease?

Peripheral vascular disease is a slow and progressive circulatory disorder.

Narrowing, blockage, or spasms in a blood vessel can cause PVD.

PVD can affect any blood vessel outside the heart, including arteries, veins, or lymphatic vessels.

Organs supplied by these vessels, such as the brain and legs, may not receive enough blood flow to function properly. However, the legs and feet are most commonly affected.

Peripheral vascular disease is also called peripheral arterial disease.

Some of the well-known symptoms include intermittent pain, which may present as muscle cramps or fatigue, “coldness” of the affected body part, numbness and tingling.

The late Queen’s hands were ‘mottled’, which occurs when the heart can no longer pump blood effectively.

Blood pressure slowly drops and blood flow throughout the body slows, causing the extremities to begin to feel cool to the touch. Crossroads Hospice informed.

Sadly, Dr Deb confirmed that Queen Elizabeth II “would have been in a lot of pain” if she suffered from the chronic illness because “it looks pretty serious”.

There is no way of knowing for sure how long the ‘speckled’ has been there, as the monarch had not been seen in public for some time and often wore gloves.

“The slightly stooped appearance would have been her age and more than likely osteoporosis,” said Dr. Deb (pictured)

So it was probably her incredibly strong disposition and willingness to complete the royal engagement that saw her beaming before Liz Truss on Tuesday.

“The slightly stooped appearance would have been her age and more than likely osteoporosis,” said Dr. Deb.

Buckingham Palace declared the longest-serving British monarch dead at 96 at 6:30 p.m. Thursday night.

The Queen used the aid of a cane to welcome Liz Truss to an audience at Balmoral Castle in Scotland, where she invited the newly elected leader of the Conservative Party to become Prime Minister.

The historic hearing marked the first time the 96-year-old monarch, who has faced constant mobility problems, has carried out key duty at her retreat in Aberdeenshire, rather than Buckingham Palace.

It was also the first time she had been photographed since she was seen arriving at the property on July 21 for her summer vacation.

The Queen had been suffering from episodic mobility problems since last autumn, and a decision was made last week to ask incoming and outgoing prime ministers to make the 1,000-mile round trip to see her.

A statement from Buckingham Palace issued at 1pm on Tuesday said: “The Queen received the Right Honorable Elizabeth Truss MP in audience today and asked her to form a new Administration.” Mrs. Truss accepted Her Majesty’s offer and kissed her hands on her appointment as Prime Minister and First Lord of the Treasury.

The Court Circular normally records that ‘the Prime Minister kissed hands on appointment’. However, this is not literally the case, and it is usually a handshake, as it was today with Miss Truss.

The gathering took place in Balmoral’s green-carpeted Ballroom, which has matching green sofas, a leaf-patterned fabric chair, a fireplace, and several antique equine-themed paintings on the walls.

The queen normally spends the months of August and September at her Highlands retreat, where she is joined by other members of the family at various stages. Prince William and Kate and their children, Prince George, nine, Princess Charlotte, seven, and Prince Louis, four, are among those who have already been to see her at Balmoral this year.
