Reply To: Pantyhose on cool morning.

[Alison Anderson]

Normally when I go for a walk, I go bare legged in the warmer weather, pantyhose when it’s a bit cooler, and tights when it gets cold. Having an ankle length coat means I can wear a skirt in even the coldest weather. I have also worn tights as thermal underwear, or instead of socks.

A couple of weeks ago my legs started swelling as a side effect of chemo. While waiting for compression stockings, I was wearing pantyhose for the light compression it gave. I even wore them under shorts to a company picnic, even though it was a hot summer day. Because they were a sheer nude color, no one noticed that I was wearing pantyhose.
