Lyme/Veins/ACA and.......any connection to "systemic vascular resistance" on ECG???

Hi all- I am (almost) convinced that I have/had ACA- a few days ago I notice the veins in my hands/fingers extremely prominent- and noticed little bumps in veins (yikes-beginning of vasc.? or fluke)- the wrinkles/100 year old looking skin seems to be going away with doxy- but, this scared me- and I thought perhaps a connection to my "off the charts" response to "Systemic Vascular Resistance" - researched all night and this am- going to talk to Dr. today-

Any experience anyone?????? Thanks!!!

Found this on an old Lyme Blog:

"Lyme Disease can also cause superficial phlebitis & deep vein
thrombosis usually if one has vasculitis and or acrodermatitis chronica
atrophicans. It causes inflamation of the vein thereby vein is swollen
& blood cannot flow through vein freely & then eventually a clot can
form.
It can also mimic the symptoms of claudification & perpherial vascular
disease esp if one has ACA also. Some of those symptom lists should
have vasculitis listed plus re-occuring rashes, rashes with open sores
also." -Lipanz (old Lyme Blog)
