    What causes purple legs while standing even if I stand for a few minutes? They actually get purple with some reddish color even blue-ish so weird ..

    is there tingling/numbing or pain?

    It sound like an arterial congestive issues (not enough blood flow) which is quite serious. Check with your doctor and see if they recommend any testing.

    Just recently I did some testing like CT angiogram and heart ultrasound and was told everything looked good, do you recommend any other testing for this? Any supplementation that I can get?

    Everything usually “looks good” as they cant do tests for this kind of stuff and when they can, they are looking for MAJOR issues before they are concerned. There aren’t any supplements I could recommend without doing a full protocol however diet is extremely important here. Lots of soluble fiber, lemon, apple cider vingegar, nettle tea, lean proteins, lots of dark greens, no sugar and minimize starchy carbs. Ginger can help improve circulation.

    No not tingling nor numbing nor pain it is just discoloration, in summer I get mostly redness when standing up, and in winter more purplish when standing up which goes away quickly but yeah it happens most of the time. Could it be pots or something like that?

    it could be POTS, yes. Either way your symptoms are al pointing to major sluggishness with your circulation so doing things to improve that can help (movement, ginger, rebounding, warming foods)
