I have had various ruptured veins, but my symptoms don't match anything i can google.?


in the last 2 1/2 years i have had five different veins suddenly swell and burst. i do not have varicose veins and i do not fit the symptoms of deep vein thrombosis. what happens is that i feel sudden pain and pressure (bad pain), and then i can see my blood vessel swelling to multiple times its size, bulging out of my skin. after about five minutes the vein ruptures, leaving me with no more intense pain, just a large painful bruise. first time it happened was in my foot on the top/side near the arch(just a little vein), few months later in my groin(a big one this time), six months later on the side of my hand by my pinky, months later one in my calf (thought i was a goner this time, super painful and massive bruise) and just recently on the underside of my wrist. i do not take birth control pills, am not sedentary and am only 32. i have an auto immune disorder called sarcoidosis. my eleven year old daughter just had a cavernous angioma removed from her brain a couple months ago.

i have always had very low blood pressure. even when i was pregnant it never went above 110/65. all five ruptured veins have been on my right side.

Hi ya. You really need to get this checked out this with a specialist. The condition your daughter has is often genitically related, so considering your symptoms it would appear that this may be from your side of the family. Your GP should be referring you to a vascular neurologist for an indepth assessment. I am shocked that since your daugthers event your doctor has not followed this up. You need to get this sorted as the incidence of your illness is increasing as time passes. You obviously have weakened areas in your vascular system - for now they appear to be mostly on the limbs but really until you are fully examined a hidden danger is constantly present.

I dont want to frighten or worry you, however please get this checked out.

see a doctor it might be serious

Do you have high blood pressure? My mother had the same condition and it led to a CVA (stroke).

you need to go and see a doctor A.S.A.P.

You could have a blood clot on the move.
