I seemed to remember the monikor wasn't due to smoking cigs anyway. Sounds like you are doing pretty good at staying healthy. Maybe do some studying with your wife on which nutritional levels you might want to get checked to focus on your skin's health in the future.
If the problem could be circulatory then maybe get checked for claudification. I think the Kennedy Kreiger Institute's Dr Sandowsky can fill a vascular doc in on how to do the testing without kicking your spasms in which throw the results off. I also agree with ditching the chair but not like I do. Once I'm comfy I don't want to get back up.
