Bulging Arteries And Flushed Skin Posted: 10-20-06 18:04pm
Just curious if anyone has every read or
experienced themselves what i'm going
through. For the last two years, i've
seen my health decline and then level out.
I had constant malaise, fatigue,
irregular heartbeat, diarrhea, severe
headaches, visual disturbances and
otherwise felt drunk. I had my
gallbladder out in 05, and since had not
improved. I just recently was told i'm
hypoglycemic and am taking steps to
improve that, but the weird part is this:
I was put on a bile-binding resin for the
post-gb-surgery diarrhea (a year too late,
but whatever) and began drinking many more
fluids, which I was now retaining, but I
came to notice that my skin had taken on a
more red flushed tint, and when a finger
is pressed into it, it takes about 3
seconds to return to normal color,
regardless of the pressure exerted upon
it. It does not pitt, and so I don't
believe it's edema. At the same time, I
noticed the veins in my arms and legs and
throat are bulging more than they ever
did. I'm especially worried about the
carotid arteries bulging. I don't notice
anyone's bulging at all when they're
simply standing at rest.
