I have noticed that  I have a bunch of little bitty busted veins on the tops of my feet, closest to my toes. Why??? Blessed, you been kicking people or ballet dancing??? Sounds like rheumatoid vasculitis to me.  I had it on my hands around my fingernails the same way.  Imuran controls it very well.Really? Because they are very tiny busted veins. Almost like little spider veins. What causes rheumatoid vasculitis?

Blessed, I have had those for a long time. They are just getting worse as I get older. However, I have varicose veins pretty badly in my legs, ankles and feet. The little spider vein ones are everywhere, too.

My rheumatologist has seen them, as they are hard to miss. But has not said anything about them being vasculitis. Just told me to watch my arms and legs for little raised, red bumps. She said if I could feel them above the skin to come in.. She said that would be vasculitis.

Oh good...that kinda freaked me out.

Thanks guys!
