Could just be your age?I am a year older and it is surprising how age related changes suddenly appear.

I have a lot more thread veins in the last couple of years and was shocked when I looked at my left foot which have loads. I put this down to age. I mentioned it to one of our GPs but she didn’t really say anything. When I also showed her my forearms which get very bruised all she said then was well it shows the apixaban is working!!!!!

Maybe pop and see your Gp?

All the best
