I have had these teeny tiny veins around my ankles for some time now. I guess they may be what they call "spider veins".
I am now noticing they are appearing all over my legs.
Does anyone know if this has to do with my Lyme? Does anyone else have this problem, if so, is there anything you can do to stop it?
I currently do not have a voice. I lost it about a week ago. Very interesting that I came on this morning to find a new thread about losing your voice.
It is something new every single day. I feel I am just slowly dying.

Yep, capillary rashes are Bartonella. The herb Japanese Knotweed lowers VEGF - vascular endothelial growth factor. You could try that. It's usually labeled Resveratrol. Just make sure it's from the knotweed, and not red grapes.
If you are treating Bartonella with antibiotics, the veins should go away with time.

hey I have those exact veins on my ankle too! And by my knee, and bunches of them on my legs! Stared getting them when I got sick. I am 20, and fit! So i shouldn't have these. My husband's legs look better than mine. I start treatment next week, so hopefully those tiny purple red veins and stretch marks will go away!

I have had those "little veins" for a few years now. I even had them on my face! Talk about feeling unattractive! I especially had them on the back of my legs. The other day, I said to my grandaughter (9 years old), "Isn't it nice to have your grammy back again and almost all better?" She answers, "Yes it is and you don't even have all those lines all on your legs anymore!" I hadn't even noticed because I am so excited about being alive again I hadn't checked for the "little veins". With proper treatment and detoxing, it does get better. Over 9 years now for me.
