Hi,

Just a quick question, i used to have quite a few spider veins on my upper torso, chest area. Noticed the other day that they have all vanished.

question is .. is that a good sign or can they come and go.

Not posted for a while, hope everyone is doing ok in this new odd world.

Gosh I would think it is good. I am riddled with the things across my chest but my arms and face only have a few, i wish they would go.

I had only one small spider nevis on upper chest. It left a few weeks after I got my liver transplant (I had been end-stage alcoholic cirrhosis, sober for 1.5 years when transplanted). No spider nevis ever returned since then (January 2019). So perhaps some of them depart post-transplant as mine did; have our other post-transplant people had experience of this?
