I went to see the doc about mine - i have varicous veins that lead into spider veins, and apparently i need to go and see a specialist and get them drained.
but...... that was before we joined a health fund, and they arent really too bad (hurt a bit sometimes) but, i have been told that its part of the progesterone of pregnancy, so i think i will wait till we have another one to go and see the specialist.
Sorry, probably not much help! But i feel for you!
